    Flax

    Based on the long slender leaves of the indigenous flax plant or harakeke in Māori that has long been grown for its valuable fibre.

    Background

    Flax Pendant is based on the long slender leaves of the indigenous flax plant or harakeke in Maori that has long been grown for its valuable fibre. There is a Maori proverb about preserving important resources: If you cut the central stalk of the flax bush, where will the bellbird feed? Flax comes in 2 sizes. The plywood finish can be all natural or painted on one side thus creating a stock selection of 11 options including black. The shallow form lends itself to lower ceiling spaces.

    "We are thrilled and delighted with our flax light fitting. The kitset arrived promptly and I enjoyed assembling it - the video was a really helpful guide. Our house is a modest 2 bedroom 1970's crib in Arrowtown. That said, we love our little nest and one of our favourite things to do is cook and share meals with friends around our beautiful bespoke dining table. Our David Trubridge pendant light just completes the experience beautifully." Michaela & David Candy-Bigland
    "By chance, we saw your Flax design on the website of one of your stockists in Sydney. We fell in love with it and have now installed it in the entry of our new home. We chose a red interior for the light and it looks fantastic against a red feature wall." Anonymous
