Louise’s story
This mould-pressed glass globe was discovered one sunny morning at a flea market in the Alfama district — Lisbon’s oldest neighbourhood. Resting between two forgotten objects, it was waiting — its tall stylised palm leaves and diamond point frieze bearing witness to a time when everyday objects were crafted with care and poetry.
Back in our Lisbon workshop, we mounted it onto a ceiling rose and ornate antique gold brass claw mount, and dressed it in a silver twisted cord. And so the Louise pendant light was born — delicate and luminous, whose foliage patterns only fully reveal themselves in the light.
How to use your Louise pendant light
The Louise pendant light fixes to the ceiling via its brass ceiling rose and 90 cm cord. When lit, its stylised palm leaves are revealed by transparency and diffuse a soft, natural light. Install it alone above a bedside table or multiply it in a row for a botanical and poetic effect. Need a different length? 9 options are available on request.
Good to know: Every vintage lamp available on our online shop Alfama Chic has its own story. Sourced and assembled with care and passion, our globes sometimes bear the marks of time. Any minor imperfection is of course mentioned in the description.
