Custom 'flower of life' 2.7m
 
 
 
Project Type:
Massive chandelier

Location:
Near the Great pyramids on the Nile, Egypt

Client / specified by:
Mena House Hotel

Date:
2009

   This oversized version of our 'flower of life' chandelier was one of our most challenging projects to date. It weighs approximately 400kgs, is 2.7m in diameter and 6.5m in length. The Project was for a famous old hotel in Egypt on the nile with a view of the great pyramids. The story is fitting because the origens of the sacred geometry known as the 'flower of life' which is the inspiration behind this design, have some of their roots tied to the great pyramids.
