Concha Embroidure extends MESEME Studio’s Concha Pendant Light collection through a collaboration with artist Nicole Chui. The pairing grew out of an unlikely conversation: a weekend football game, and the collection’s shell-like paper structure and warm brass details. Chui was struck by a teammate’s tireless running path, traced by a fitness tracker during an intense match, and translated it into hand-embroidered ‘scribbles’ across the collection’s paper shades — a counterpoint of chaos and dedication set against the main collection’s usual calm.
The fixture uses a unique paper sourced from paper pioneers G.F Smith, blending paper with non-woven fabric; its own fibres are visible on the surface, and it takes on a warm sheen when held to the light. Handcrafted, embroidered and assembled in MESEME’s London studio, where Nicole Chui shares the workspace.
Limited edition of 20. Materials: G.F Smith specialist paper (UV-treated), opal white ellipsoid glass, brushed brass — also available in brushed aluminium or black anodised brass/aluminium.
