Jaime Hayon for Parachilna : Aballs Collection

Here is my crush of the day : the Aballs table lamp by Spanish artist-designer Jaime Hayon for Barcelona-based label Parachilna.

Aballs is a new collection of lights composed of a blown opal matt glass diffuser and a base in white, black or golden ceramic.

About – “Jaime, we are looking for a lamp, straightforward but imbued with the spirit of PARACHILNA: rich materials, traditional skills blended with artisanal craftsmanship and impeccable finishes. Design- wise…you take care of it.”

So began the creation of ABALLS, a collection that combines the world class craftsmanship skills of Bosa with the traditional artistry of hand blown glass. Ceramics and blown glass are linked by a polished brass ring. The dimmer’s control lever is also made of polished brass. The ABALLS collection includes a chandelier, hanging lamps available in three different sizes and table lamps available in two sizes.

The chandelier showcases a golden electroplated or white, black lacquered steel structure matching the colors of the ceramic bodies. 24 blown glass diffusers complete the fixture. The hanging and tablelamps are made up of a blown glass diffuser and a white, black or golden ceramics base.
