David Trubridge Flax Pendant - Bamboo

The David Trubridge Flax Pendant Bamboo is inspired by New Zealand’s native flax plant, harakeke, which has been used for its valuable fiber for centuries. Rooted in Māori tradition, the plant is harvested sustainably, reflecting a deep respect for nature. As the proverb goes, "If you cut the central stalk of the flax bush, where will the bellbird feed?" This wise saying emphasizes the importance of maintaining balance in nature. The Flax Pendant Bamboo honors this sustainable practice by using eco-friendly bamboo, creating a beautiful, modern design that aligns with both environmental responsibility and cultural heritage.

In addition, the Flax Pendant Bamboo is available in a range of sizes and colors, making it a versatile lighting solution for both residential and commercial spaces. Notably, it is sold as a flat-pack kitset, which significantly reduces shipping volume and material waste. This design choice not only minimizes environmental impact but also invites customers to participate in the assembly process, fostering a deeper connection to the product. As a result, the pendant seamlessly blends aesthetic appeal with sustainability, offering an elegant and environmentally mindful addition to any setting.

Furthermore, David Trubridge, the visionary behind the design, is celebrated for his unwavering commitment to sustainable design. Based in New Zealand, David draws inspiration from the natural world, believing in the harmony between art and the environment. His works, including the Flax Pendant Bamboo, feature eco-friendly materials and innovative techniques, resulting in designs that are both functional and beautiful. In this way, each piece continues David’s legacy of combining timeless design with sustainable craftsmanship, ensuring that every product reflects his dedication to both art and nature.
