giant pinecone chandelier

This project is the reason I kind of dropped off the internet for a couple months there. But isn’t it beautiful?

It’s a chandelier I was commissioned to design and build for a big fancy fundraising gala. It’s being installed in two days.

I’ll make a longer more in-depth post with in-progress shots and explanations later, but for now:

    laser cut
    1/16” thick okoume plywood
    bolted together
    1/8” birch plywood internal frame
    14 light bulbs inside
    about 50 lbs
    about 50 inches in diameter
    currently taking up most of my living room
    f***ing awesome.
