Taking shape from the wake of a wave and inspired by the Cornish coastline, Cape continues Tom Raffield's celebrated signature curved aesthetic. Handcrafted in Cornwall, England, and formed of 12 sustainably sourced timber petals, Cape casts intriguing shadows when illuminated and makes a statement whether switched on or off. Growing up surrounded by the natural beauty of Exmoor, England, Tom Raffield was inspired at an early age by the unspoiled landscapes of his environment. Whilst studying at art school he developed an innovative steaming method which allowed him to manipulate a variety of wood types and bring his stunning designs to life. These contemporary pieces are heavily influenced by forms found in nature, and are constructed using sustainable materials and ecologically sound practices. Handmade in Cornwall, England, Tom Raffield's exquisite collection of lighting and furniture offers a remedy to the current throw-away culture, and re-introduces the concept of the cherished collectible.
