THE COPPÉLIA CHANDELIER comes to life
in a whirl of flowing motion and sparkling
light. With a graceful sense of wonder, a
beautiful mechanical doll appears in the
famous ballet Coppélia. In the performance
the ballerina traces, with sinuous movements,
a delicate after-image in the air, which
inspires the fluid motion in the design of
Arihiro Miyake’s Coppélia Chandelier. The
graceful dance, staged by the three-dimen-
sionally crossed wire structure, leads the
spectator to dozens of glowing LED lights,
which define the contour and the magical
glow of Miyake’s new interpretation of a
classic chandelier.
