Brass and Quartz Crystal Pendant Light, Abacus 1800 by Christopher Boots

About the Item

Brass and quartz crystal pendant light - Abacus 1800 by Christopher Boots The Abacus is a sophisticated tool dating back to 300 BC. Sliding stones along a rod, ancient statesmen, merchants and mathematicians performed mathematical balancing acts using this simple yet powerful tool. Abacus enacts this ancient, loaded gesture, allowing faceted brass clasped quartz crystals to be balanced at any point along a horizontal brass beam. Diffused LED light both highlights the jewel clasp and emanates downwards to wash surfaces in warm, dimmable light. Jewel drop and beam additions allow the expression of either minimal or elaborate balancing acts. On the first image you can see following configuration: Abacus I 900, (aged brass). In the description bellow we present available options for the dimensions, finish, suspension type etc.  Design: Christopher Boots, 2019 Materials: aged brass, natural uncut quartz crystals Lamp: 24V LED WW 2700K dimmable Suspension: Vertical Rod Sizes, watts & price: Abacus 900 - 900 x 65 x 340 mm (35.4 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 18W $8,531 Abacus 1200 - 1200 x 65 x 340 mm (47.2 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 23W $9,562 Abacus 1500 - 1500 x 65 x 340 mm (59.0 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 29W $10,875 Abacus 1800 - 1800 x 65 x 340 mm (70.9 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 35W $12,187 Abacus 2100 - 2100 x 65 x 340 mm (82.7 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 41W $14,250 Abacus 2400 - 2400 x 65 x 340 mm (94.5 x 2.6 x 13.4 ”) 47W $16,312 Additional Quartz Drop - 65 x 30 x 340 mm (2.6 x 1.2 x 13.4 ”) $1,013 Details & Notes: Crystals are grown by Mother Nature, as such all crystals will differ in size, shape and scale with every fixture.

Exploring relationships between architecture, symbology and geometry found in nature offers a contemporary interpretation of pattern, structure and symmetry. All works are handmade with love and care, with a diverse team of skilled artisans. Collaborations with glass blowers, coppersmiths, ceramicists, sculptors, and bronze casters, ensures a commitment to quality and underscores an investigative sensibility, giving birth to an aesthetic often unexpected.
