Shio Grande LED Pendant by Arturo Alvarez SH04 WEThe layered grain of plywood is prominently featured in the Arturo Alvarez Shio Grande Pendant, using the natural lines of the material as the textural focal point. The light peaks through the slender openings which is tinted according to the different laminate finishes of the smooth interior sides. This unique use of material reinvents the familiar tapered shade, conducting a wide radius of light below and around 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.
