Handcrafted copper and brass pendant light from Studio Saswata's Kalash series — inspired by the sacred Shikara spires of Hindu temple architecture.
Where Kalash 1 carries the warmth of brass gold and natural wood, Kalash 2 carries something older and more complex — the verdigris finish that copper develops when time and atmosphere work upon it. The same sacred Shikara geometry derived from the temple spires of Jaipur and the cosmic mountain of Meru, now in a finish that feels as though it was lifted from a centuries-old temple rather than a contemporary design studio. Green-blue patina over copper and brass in a form of mathematical precision — this is the Kalash for the home that gravitates toward depth and age and the particular beauty of materials that carry the evidence of their making.
At 8.5 inches wide and 15 inches tall it has the same commanding vertical presence as Kalash 1 with a visual weight that the verdigris finish amplifies — this pendant does not simply hang in a space, it anchors it. Hang one alone in a corridor or above a console where the verdigris catches warm light and glows with a quality that polished brass never achieves. Group a set of Kalash 1 and Kalash 2 pendants together for a cluster that tells the full story of the series across two finishes and two material languages. Available exclusively on Tooffi, India's marketplace for independent makers who carry India's deepest design traditions into objects worthy of a contemporary home.
