Moira Furstenberg

Porcelain has always played a major role in how we create our homes.
With its new Moira lighting series by Sebastian Herkner,
Furstenberg demonstrates the changeability of the unique
material and the potential of porcelain to capture the
mood of the time in ever new forms, beyond the sphere of dining.
Moira combines modern interior design with traditional craftsmanship.
“Porcelain is like a filter. It creates a special atmosphere with
the light” is how Sebastian Herkner describes the special
fascination of porcelain. The inspiration for the Moira
lighting series came to the much-in-demand German product
designer during a visit to Porzellanmanufaktur Furstenberg
where he observed how light behaves on fine, unglazed porcelain.
It is almost translucent and the light which shines through
it is particularly warm and soft. The Moira lighting series
consists of a pendant lamp in three different lengths,
a table lamp with two light sources and a floor lamp with six
light sources. The central design element of all the lamps is
the light cup produced by Porzellanmanufaktur Furstenberg.
