Leonardo 1482 – Da Vinci

Leonardo 1482 Sculptural Chandelier

Leonardo 1482 is a sculptural chandelier that resembles a rising sun, drawing on Renaissance-era mechanics. It’s named for the year Leonardo da Vinci began designing and developing his inventions.

Designed by Maurice Dery, it’s the main chandelier in our Da Vinci Collection, which uses modern technology to capture the spirit of what Leonardo did in the late 15th and early 16th centuries: his mechanics and his approach to magnifying and projecting light. The collection also includes the Vitruvian Table Lamp, Infinity 1519 Table Lamp, Infinity 1519 Pendant, Infinity Modern Pendant, and Infinity Modern Sconce.

Built around moving mechanics

We developed this Da Vinci chandelier around working mechanical elements rather than just decorative gears. In this gear chandelier, magnifiers direct the light onto mirrors, and a pull on the brass chain moves eight cogged wheels simultaneously to redirect it onto the wall or floor.

We built it from genuine patinaed brass and blackened aluminum, giving this piece of sculptural lighting the aged, vintage character of Renaissance-era machinery.
