Mystery clouds the ancient story of OURANOS: The God of Heaven, grandfather of Prometheus, consort and son to Earth Goddess Gaia. Honouring the vertical rotation of the planet Uranus with a transversal rift of light, an individual lustrous quartz sphere appears suspended in a slab of brass. Concealed by time, OURANOS reminds us to push past our limitations, eying the skies above our clouded collective consciousness.

The Christopher Boots studio was founded on the principle of “Fiat Lux”: Let there be Light.
Established 11-11-11 through metaphysical and material exploration of quartz crystal, the studio gave birth to creating lighting with a signature aesthetic: exploring relationships between nature, architecture, symbology, geometry and geology, offering contemporary interpretations of structure, symmetry and pattern.
All works are handmade with love and care by a diverse team of skilled artisans. Collaborations with glass blowers, bronze foundries, sculptors, metal smiths and stone masons ensure a commitment to quality, underscoring an investigative sensibility, giving birth to a series of illuminating collections both alluring and unexpectedly visceral.
Collaborating with architects, interior designers and private clients fuels the dialogue between worlds we all transverse.
Lead time: 18 weeks.
