Nova Calisto pendant light by Anu Moser

Yes, it does look like an old sea mine or perhaps something out of an old sci-fi movie - but there's no denying that the Nova Calisto pendant light is an eye-catching piece of interior design.

The work of Anu Moser and part of a range of three similar Nova shades, the Calisto is a mouthblown shade made from three layers of glass, with pieces added manually after the shade has been blown to give it that distinctive look.

If you think that sounds like a pain to change to the bulb, don't worry, a patented hanging system makes it both easy to suspend and indeed, to access that bulb. Not cheap at £478, but you're buying a piece of art as much as a piece of functional design.
