Garbo Ceiling Lamp by Mariyo Yagi for Sirrah, Italy, 1980's

The Garbo Ceiling Lamp, designed by Mariyo Yagi, is an enthralling lighting fixture that artfully embodies her unique design philosophy, which centers on the concept of Nawa - the interconnectedness of life and energy. This captivating chandelier features a mounted metal ceiling base with elegant fringe curtains made from thin braided nylon ropes, inspired by Yagi's study of Nawaology or the Cosmos of Nawa. The spiral cords in the Garbo Ceiling Lamp symbolize the connection between earth, heaven, and all living beings, echoing the structure of DNA and the idea of individuals facing each other over a central axis of emptiness.
