BONBON

Ana Kraš’ Bonbon Lamp is a hand-woven lantern that uses an

original weaving technique to create a textured lampshade.

Inspired by her drawings, Ana perceived the lines as threads that

could fill the blank area around a lamp, resulting in one-of-a-kind

pieces that were featured in numerous art shows and publications.

In her lampshade collaboration with HAY, she uses the same idea

of wrapping cotton-wool yarn around powder-coated steel frames

to create individual lampshades that vary slightly in their

appearance and texture.

INTRODUCING THE BONBON LAMP

New York-based designer Ana Kraš’ Bonbon Lamps are

handmade works of art, produced from hand-woven yarn that

has been wrapped around a steel frame. With its fields of shifting

colour, it is a compelling design object when the light is turned off,

and maintains a distinctly different aesthetic profile when illuminated.

Striking a harmonious balance between industrial production and

artisanal handicraft, Bonbon offers a contemporary yet poetic design

in the form of a multi-purpose light that serves both functional

and decorative uses. These large pendant and medium-sized table

lamps come in two colour variants, one for each size.

“We really wanted the quality of Bonbon to feel as authentic as it

was when Ana used to make each lamp herself, and to showcase

the beautiful contrast between the industrial frame and the

handwoven, artisanal craftwork.”

PRODUCTION

Bonbon’s construction combines visual delicacy with physical robustness.

It comprises hand-woven, fine twill yarn composed of wool and nylon

wrapped around a solid internal frame of powder-coated steel wire.

“I think the final product has a handmade quality to it, so you can feel the

time and effort that goes into each one, but it doesn’t exactly look like a

handmade piece.

I think that’s a rare combination: things usually look either crafty or

mass-produced, but I was curious about that mix, how we can make a

handmade craft look like a polished piece of design.” – Ana Kraš
