Description
Why choose the Potence Double Wall light? A monumental Chromed silhouette with strong visual impact Soft, enveloping light thanks to two Opaline Glass globes Handcrafted in France to an exceptional finish A creation by Axel Chay, a rising star of contemporary sculptural design A sculptural wall piece with a striking presenceWith its linear design and imposing dimensions (H 110 cm), the Potence Double Wall light is a true visual statement. Two folded, interlocking aluminum tubes evoke industrial pipes, metamorphosed by a spectacular mirror-polished finish. Both enigmatic and playful, this structure captures the light, stimulates the imagination and draws the eye. The two Opaline Glass globes, suspended from the curve of the Metal, diffuse a soft, warm light. Everything superfluous is eliminated, leaving only the essential: a pure, graphic, highly expressive form. Between industrial brutality and poetic abstractionWith its rudimentary yet graceful curves, Potence Double plays with the codes of the utilitarian object by hijacking them through design. The piece evokes both the rigor of industry and the softness of contemporary sculpture. The contrast between the raw materiality of aluminum and the luminous delicacy of glass creates a fascinating aesthetic tension. A work that is both radical and reassuring, giving relief to space. The free, sculptural universe of Axel ChayA self-taught designer and founder of the Nova Obiecta studio, Axel Chay explores the boundaries between art and design. Inspired by kinetic art and the Memphis movement, he creates abstract, geometric and sensual pieces. Handcrafted in Marseille, the Potence Double wall light embodies this bold vision of design: transforming a simple steel tube into a sculptural manifesto. The know-how employed - from the aeronautical and nuclear industries to historic craftsmanship - underlines the exacting nature of every detail. More than just a luminaire, Potence Double is a strong visual signature, designed to enhance interior architecture with brilliance and singularity.

Our Stylist Says
I love this wall light for its sleek, minimalist design and silver metal finish, which makes it highly versatile across various interiors. Its understated presence works particularly well in contemporary, industrial, or Scandinavian schemes, where clean lines and functional aesthetics are key. The fact that it has a plug means it’s both flexible and easy to install, perfect for spaces where a hardwired fixture isn’t practical. Styling tips include using it to highlight artwork, add ambient lighting beside a bed, or in a reading nook. Pair it with simple, modern furniture and keep accessories minimal to let the fixture’s design stand out. Overall, it’s a practical yet stylish choice for adding a contemporary edge to any room.
