Australian Timber Propeller Droop Pendant
Crafted in Hobart, this pendant is a sculptural masterpiece featuring eight gently curved Tasmanian eucalypt blades. Designed by Duncan Meerding, whose vision impairment informs a distinctive focus on light dispersion and tactile form, the pendant casts intricate shadows and shifting patterns as light filters through its layered structure.
Merging organic shapes with industrial techniques, each pendant is produced in Tasmania using a combination of hand-driven and computer-aided processes. The eight blades slot into a custom-made aluminium bracket and are secured with discreet grub screws, then finished with a turned Tasmanian Blackwood nose cone cover cap.
Duncan shares: "The relationship between light and shadow and light dispersion are integral to my design process. Being legally blind with less than 5% of my sight remaining, the vision of light emanating from the peripheries of the different objects, reflect the alternative sensory world within which I design".
Thoughtfully designed for ease of assembly, the pendant is delivered flat-packed to reduce shipping impact and environmental footprint. It arrives with a 2m black cloth cord, black ceiling rose, and an instruction sheet.
