Details
The Moooi Emperor Suspended basically takes that whole concept of ornate birdcages and turns it into lighting that actually works in contemporary spaces without feeling like you're decorating a Victorian conservatory. Designed by Neri & Hu Design and Research Office, this thing features an intricately hand-woven bamboo rattan shade that surrounds an internal glass diffuser, creating this distinctive interplay of light and shadow that changes throughout the day as natural light conditions shift. Available in jet black and purple-red finishes, the small version measures 40x60cm, providing substantial presence without overwhelming rooms with standard ceiling heights. Each cage gets woven by hand, so every piece has unique character rather than that mass-produced uniformity you get with most pendant lighting. What makes this lamp really work is how it handles that balance between dramatic visual impact and actual functionality that most statement lighting completely misses. The bamboo construction allows light to escape through the woven pattern while the internal glass diffuser creates warm, charming illumination that works for both ambient mood lighting and task illumination over dining tables or seating areas. The cage design provides natural light filtering that softens harsh LED output into something that feels more organic and comfortable. Since it's inspired by the story of an emperor's nightingale rather than just abstract design concepts, it brings narrative depth to spaces while serving as serious lighting rather than just decorative novelty. Moooi has been redefining contemporary lighting since 2001, working with innovative international designers like Neri & Hu who understand how to blend cultural storytelling with functional design. Based in the Netherlands but collaborating with talent from Shanghai to Stockholm, they've built their reputation on pieces that merge artistic vision with genuine craftsmanship rather than just following current trends. Neri & Hu's multicultural background - educated in the West but deeply rooted in Asian design philosophy - shows in the Emperor's thoughtful construction that respects traditional bamboo weaving techniques while creating lighting that enhances modern interiors. Moooi's philosophy of adding that extra "o" to "mooi" (Dutch for beautiful) represents their commitment to extra value in beauty, developing pieces that transform spaces through cultural depth and technical excellence rather than just visual impact.
