PostKrisi Chandelier
Made by Catellani & Smith
Designed by Enzo Catellani
Enzo Catellani founded Catellani & Smith in Bergamo in 1989, driven by a conviction that light should be shaped by hand and informed by material instinct. The PostKrisi collection, one of the studio's most recognized bodies of work, grew from that sensibility: each shade is formed from natural fiberglass, its jagged, irregular edge a deliberate gesture rather than a flaw.
In chandelier form, PostKrisi becomes a suspended composition. Multiple shades, available in 14 cm or 20 cm diameters, hang from a satin steel base configured as a square, rectangle, or circle. Blue wires trace the structure with quiet precision, while copper and brass details warm the metal palette. The light source operates at 2700K with a CRI of 90, rendering color faithfully and casting the walls in layered, organic shadow.
