Yuriko White Chandelier

As if it has sprouted three pairs of lily petals that arc delicately away from each other, the Yuriko Chandelier is a crisp white creation until the interiors of those petals are glimpsed, as they are finished in a contemporary gold leaf that contrasts the gesso white beautifully. The brilliance of this design doesn't stop there: it continues in the pare-down quality of the stems from which the shades extend, which grow thinner as they move toward the petals; the circular details on these, which create an elemental knottiness like that of bamboo; and the elegant shape of the small cup from which they branch out.
