Form and function come to gether like falling leaves in this original take on a tra ditional chandelier. The creation of glass artist Simon Peleg, the fix ture evokes the tumbling sensation and bright hues of copper and gold leaves turning through sunny au tumn skies.

Each translucent, textured col ored-glass pendant is suspended by a wire thread attached to a 36-inch long by 12-inch wide dark brown metal ceiling plate. Part fixture, part work of art, the light casts a magical, warm glow on any space.

Peleg designed the piece for AM Studio, specialists in beautiful and original glass, porcelain and crystal chandeliers, fixtures and sconc es. The light shown here sells for $2,500, but smaller versions with fewer pendants are also available.
