....Swarmlights ‘objects’

Carole Harris of Divali Natural Lighting Designand and Wilma Coetzee of Glass House (manufacturer of glass wall lights) co-operated to start
a
new range of mobile light installations under Divali’s name.

Divali Natural Lighting Design cc

Started manufacturing ceramic & later ‘Crete’wall lights nearly 7 years ago in Carole Harris’ Wilderness studio. Carole moved the business to a small factory in Knysna in 2005 and then in February this year, moved the factory, some staff and her two children to Hermanus. Next, re: the mobile installations “SWARMLIGHTS”

 

Carole Harris of Divali Natural Lighting Design and Wilma Coetzee of Glass House (manufacturer of glass wall lights) co-operated to start a new range of mobile light installations under Divali’s name. The new range has been called “Swarmlights”. Their first commission has been a massive grape mobile for the Steenberg Winery in Cape Town which is under construction. Then they exhibited a Quellea Bird mobile at Decorex which was a huge success and they have had orders from a well known hotel and various interior decorators for custom designed bird mobiles of various shapes and sizes.

 

Swarmlights ‘objects’ can be birds, fish ... anything the mind can conceive  ... and will be sculpted and strung in flocks, swarms, schools etc depending on the area the client wishes to fill. They are made of sandblasted resin in whatever colour required. 

Contact Divali Lighting for more info: 028-313-2495/028-312-4152

Mail us for more info on Divali's Delectable lighting..
