Michel Rectangular Pendant by Nicholas Obeid

Michel Rectangular Pendant is a hand-stitched goat parchment linear pendant light by Studio Nicholas Obeid, made to order in New York over three matte glass globes. 42" wide, 17" high, with a custom drop length. The shade is domestically sourced goat parchment, stitched by hand from a metal frame with waxed linen thread over the course of about twenty hours. The skins are stretched, cut and sanded to an even thickness and then left alone — no finish is applied — so the natural variation in tone and texture is what you see when the lamp is lit. Three matte glass globes sit inside; the light comes through the hide rather than past it. At three and a half feet this is the linear fixture of the Michel family, made for the length of a dining table, a kitchen island or a long console, where a single round pendant would leave the ends of the run dark. The frame comes in aged brass, polished brass or mottled nickel, each a hand-applied wax finish. Shown in ivory parchment with an unlacquered polished brass frame. Drop length is made to order. Parchment is a natural material and will respond to humidity, temperature and light — it may ripple or shift slightly over time, and variation in colour, movement and translucency is expected rather than a fault. Keep it out of direct sunlight and heat, clean with a dry cloth only, and use the low-heat LEDs supplied rather than incandescent bulbs. Designed 2024. Supplied with three E12 5W dimmable LEDs. UL listing available on request; to be installed by a professional.
