After seeing the cluster of the Taraxacum Pendants hanging in Liberty's, I knew this was the light to hang in our Clothing Department. Designed by Achille Castiglioni in 1988, Taraxacum is a real stunner. For me, it really comes into its own when lit. When it's switched off, it's still an incredible architectural presence albeit a rather masculine one. Nonetheless it has the most amazing WOW factor.
