Reinvented from elements from a classical gate from Lebanon, XXth century and repatinated in black

L:105 cms


A wonderful Franco-Lebanese company has managed to salvage wrought iron balustrades and window frames from the Lebanon dating from the 19th and early 20th century - artefacts which would have ended up in scrap yards otherwise. Traditional Lebanese houses in Beirut are now rare as they make way for development projects and high rises. These houses have been destroyed and damaged by conflicts and are abandoned and often destroyed illegally.

The original patina and the shape of the lamps themselves are carefully preserved. Everything is hand-worked using traditional blacksmith artisan techniques and natural pigments are used to colour the bases of the lamps and candleholders. The company trains and employs unskilled labour or those with physical or mental handicaps; the aim is to preserve the country's heritage whilst creating a chain of social solidarity by integrating these otherwise marginalized people.
