A Suspended Tea Cup Chandelier

Last month we posted about the ingenuous roof structure over La Motte restaurant’s outdoor courtyard. This month we take a look inside at this playful and creative tea cup chandelier – tea cups and saucers suspended with cables.

Each piece of china is individually suspended from the circular base of LED lights by a stainless steel cable. The cables are almost invisible making as if the dinnerware is floating just below the ceiling reflecting the lights from above.

Cables are not only an aesthetically pleasing solution, but their strength allows for a safe installation and longevity of the sculpture.

Tensile Cables has supplied cables for other creative projects – suspended artwork, wine racks and dividing & decorative screens.
