Pètale Opale Pendant
Based on the research of iconic lighting designers Max Ingrand and Carlo Nason and the Art Nouveau style, the Pétale Opale pendant luminaire embraces modern materials and organic forms. The translucent, frosted, and iridescent acrylic petals generate dynamic and soft illumination, ideal for accentuating spaces. Pétale Opale is lightweight, durable, and energy-efficient. The vintage-inspired LED lamp has a 15,000-hour lifespan and delivers 450 lumens with 2200 Kelvin.

Research
During the shortlived Art Nouveau period, designers sought to create a “new style” opposite the classical teachings of the École des Beaux-Arts. Art Nouveau designers embraced modern materials and organic ornamentation and rejected straight lines. Ingrand trained as an interior designer, and Nason grew up around a family of renowned Murano glassmakers. Although they rose to prominence in different generations, both designers were inspired by modern and organic forms and enjoyed experimenting with new styles, technologies, and materials.
