The Arturo Alvarez Woods Pendant is an abstracted view of nature, featuring a dense grove of birch wood that floats around a radiant light. Much like a growing tree gravitates and grows towards the sun, the planks of wood are nurtured by the light source within, creating a natural interplay of light and shadow. Suspended individually and at different lengths, the birch encircles the light source in an irregular bundle, filtering light through the openings as well as aiming light below the fixture. A company marked by excellence in inventive materials, Arturo Alvarez was founded in 1994 in Spain and continues to push the envelope with truly unique lighting solutions. Always in search of new textures and techniques, Arturo Alvarez has taken it upon himself to develop his own materials, which have received high profile awards for innovation. Such ingenuity and hard work resulted in SIMETECH®, a handmade material created with stainless steel mesh that was patented in 2014. By embracing organic forms and cutting edge technology, Arturo Alvarez strives to create original lighting through constant investigation and discovery.
