AR. ASHIESH SHAH FOR KLOVE
2015
A project by Ashiesh Shah, manufactured by Delhi based lighting studio Klove. The Tusk lights hone their influence from India’s rich cultural past and mixes traditional Indian themes with modern aesthetic sensibilities. The lights are almost abstract, stripped down to a minimal language, but full of subtle details. The blown glass ends in a gold plated silver bracelet on one end are reminiscent of the Rajasthan's tradition of dressing the tusks of palace elephants, the other side ends in a black and white marble base, again, influenced by the region's royal past.
