Moooi Raimond II Pendant

The Moooi Raimond II by Raimond Puts brings actual starlight indoors through this incredible feat of mathematical engineering that took nearly 40 years to perfect. Picture a geodesic dome filled with tiny LED lights that twinkle like stars, except it's hanging in your dining room creating the most magical atmosphere you've ever seen. The whole thing is built around prime numbers - yeah, actual math - because Puts was fascinated by both the geodesic dome shape and the mystery of prime numbers, so every dimension follows that mathematical perfection. The result is this perfect sphere where hundreds of tiny LEDs are connected by ultra-thin stainless steel strips that actually carry the electrical current, creating this delicate triangular mesh that looks impossibly complex but somehow feels completely natural.

What makes people stop in their tracks when they see the Raimond II is how it transforms any space into something that feels otherworldly. Available in three sizes from the compact R43 at just under 17 inches to the impressive R89 at 35 inches, you can choose the scale that works for your space without losing that starry night magic. The PMMA lenses on each LED point spread warm white light in every direction, so instead of harsh downlighting you get this soft, ambient glow that makes everyone look great and conversations flow easier. The wireless dimming capability means you can adjust from bright task lighting to romantic ambient glow with just a touch, and the lightweight construction despite the complex engineering makes installation straightforward for professional electricians.

Moooi works with visionary designers like Raimond Puts because they understand that some ideas are so special they deserve decades of patience and refinement to get them right. Puts was a self-taught designer who spent his life obsessing over this geodesic concept, and even though he passed away before seeing the final Raimond II completed, his wife and artist Tis Ernst worked with Moooi to bring his vision to life. The brand's Dutch approach to design means they're willing to invest in truly innovative concepts that push boundaries while creating pieces that enhance daily life, proving that when mathematical precision meets artistic vision, you get lighting that feels genuinely magical rather than just decorative.
