Shadow and Light, Hand-Pierced in Marrakech
A black perforated brass dome pendant light transforms every room it enters. Each dome is hand-hammered and hand-pierced by artisans in Marrakech’s Souq Nhas — the city’s historic copper and metalwork quarter — where master metalworker Abdul Jalil and his family have shaped brass for generations. The matte black exterior conceals a warm copper-toned interior, so every perforation casts a glow that is both dramatic and inviting.

Styling and Care
Hang a single dome over a reading nook or line several above a kitchen island for layered ambient lighting. The black exterior grounds modern and minimalist interiors, while the perforated shadow play adds warmth to any room. Dust gently with a soft dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or moisture on the powder-coated surface.
