    Kina on Natural

    Kina on Natural

    The clearance Kina 'seconds kitsets' are made from the discontinued ‘Natural’ bamboo range and cannot be sold anywhere else in the world but to you! Hurry, as stocks are limited and this offer is available for a limited time only!

    Background

    The form of our Kina light comes from the shell of a sea-urchin, which in New Zealand is called Kina by the indigenous Māori people. David saw one frozen under the Antarctic ice during a visit there in 2005. The shell had absorbed enough warmth from the sun to melt the ice around it. He used the same mathematical formula as Coral and Floral to develop the design and make one from thin plywood.
    Kina is widely used over dining situations as its opening allows clear light onto the dining surface. Kina has a woven language with soft rounded connections, interweaving the fine grained bamboo. The size range makes Kina an ideal choice anywhere from a small bedroom right up to a large foyer or lobby.

    "I recently bought one of your small Kina lights, which I love. It was such a sense of achievement when I finished putting it together :)" Victoria Bibby
    "We love our new black kina light shade. The instructions were very easy to follow and it was so much fun putting it together. Can't think of any improvements you could make - perfect." Jo Lang
    "We’re using it in our newly remodeled kitchen over a tulip table, with some Eames chairs around it. So excited to get it installed and thrilled to finally have one of your shades. I love the way they throw shadows on the ceiling, and that you are working hard to be a sustainable company. Every time I’ve returned to NZ to see my family, I have wanted to bring one back with me and now I have it!" John Taylor
