Lighting Collection "Sora"
A collaboration of transparent and glittering crystal born out of fire, and opaque and fibrous washi born out of water.
Introduction of two works with a built-in LED lighting system, "Senritsu" and "Shizuku", which are created by a fusion of the Baccarat craftsmanship with its 247-year history, and the state of the art washi-making technique which makes it possible to create three-dimensional shapes without any glue or frame. |

"Sora Senritsu Lantern"
Senritsu comes from an image of the rhythmic outward movement that sunlight creates. It is composed of two hemispheres made of washi.
Baccarat crystal "octogone" (an octagonal piece used for chandeliers) is embedded in the lower half and "pampille" crystals are used for the circumference and the bottom center to add an elegant glitter.

"Sora Shizuku Chandelier"
Shizuku comes from an image of moonlight drops.
A fusion of a most traditional design of Baccarat "Zenith" and washi. Candle holders are covered with washi and "octogone" crystals are embedded in the center pillar piece.
The light emanating from washi illuminates softly the surrounding crystals.
