Susurrus Ceramic Sculpture/Chandelier

As much as I love all of the designs I include in my blog it’s not often that I actually say ‘I want one of those’. Today’s blog is the exception! I just adore this chandelier and have place in my home for at least one!

Susurrus ceramic sculpture/chandelier is made from hundreds of tiny bone china bells. Every bell is unique with its own distinctive shape and acoustic tone. The subtle variations in the sounds and shapes are produced by variations in the organic firing process. Although the bells are unglazed they are surprisingly robust while still retaining a really delicate appearance.



The name Susurrus comes from the Latin whisper or murmur, very apt for the delicate sounds made when the chandelier is gently set in motion.

There are variations available. Susurrus Lux comes complete with integral lighting provide by a 20W bulb skilfully concealed by a porcelain conical shade. The low watt bulb and shade provide the most incredible diffused lighting effects throughout the chandelier.

If you prefer to admire Susrrus just as a sculpture feature it is available without the lighting. What’s even more amazing is that Susrrus can also be used outside and looks stunning suspended from a large tree.

Although the Susrrus chandelier in the above image was made for a 5 star hotel renovation in Ireland, smaller or larger versions up to 5m in height and virtually unlimited width due to its modular construction can be made to order.
