A ring of opals to spread light

Designer Marjan van Aubel, founder of her leading solar design studio, creates for the Chrystal Palace collection by Swarovski the three Cyanometer lamps, in floor, suspended, and wall versions. The design objects are made from a circular chain of opals, chosen for their way of spreading light similar to the sky
