Clarence Mallari, who designed the Menorca large chandelier, says of its inspiration: Watching football is always exciting, and I decided I wanted to create a chandelier in the shape of the ball. This makes the rope chandelier special because, just as you have to be a trained professional to throw the ball right, you have to be an artisan to wrap the abaca rope around the metal laser-cut frame in this odd open shape so that it is seamless. The contemporary silver leaf finish is a luminous touch.
