Mulberry tree bark
The branches of the mulberry shrubs are harvested in the autumn, and the innermost layer of bark (white bark) is stripped from the timber and boiled in a mixture of water and soda ash. The strips are then beaten by hand until they have been well separated.
The diffuser is formed by hand sewing each of the prepared clusters of fiber to a cotton grid, which has been fastened to the base structure.
The colour of the material is a soft white that yellows a little with age. To clean diffusers in this material, we recommend that they be dusted or lightly vacuumed.

7 Modern Lighting Ideas by Ango – Sculptural Handcrafted Design
The beauty of modern lighting lies not in conformity but in its expressive range—how it reflects both the architecture of a space and the personality of those who live within it. From sculptural silhouettes to sustainable craftsmanship, these seven standout ideas from ANGO invite you to reimagine how a modern ceiling light can define, soften, or completely transform your interiors.
Crafted in Thailand and featured in distinctive homes and hotels around the world, ANGO’s pieces are more than lighting—they are gestures of light and shadow, structure and soul. Here’s our curated guide to using handcrafted lighting with elegance and purpose.
1. Dining Room in Bangkok: Sculptural Silk Cocoon Light
At Ango Home Studio in Bangkok, a pair of White Crown pendants take centre stage above the dining table. Formed from hand-selected silk cocoons—each naturally unique—the lights glow with a soft, organic brilliance. Suspended a metre below a 2.5-metre ceiling, they offer a delicate counterpoint to the architecture. A refined take on modern ceiling light that feels timeless yet quietly bold.

2. UK Country House: A Cascade of Pendant Light
At The Lake House by Yoo in the UK, a generous dining table stretches over three metres. Instead of opting for one large fixture, the design team chose a composition of Cascadence pendants—handcrafted in silk cocoon and hung at varied heights. The result is rhythmic, almost poetic: a lesson in how modern lighting can embrace asymmetry while staying beautifully intentional.

3. Kitchen Island Illumination: Functional Meets Artful
In this open-concept kitchen, Filament rises as a sculptural accent. Crafted from recycled steel filigree and hand-welded at every junction, it appears to suspend fragments of light mid-air. The downlight is crisp and functional, while the form delivers drama. A statement piece that marries modern lighting aesthetics with utilitarian purpose.

4. Loft Living: Light as Architecture
Some spaces call for light with presence. In this soaring living-and-dining area, Ango created a custom configuration of the Triple Orbit pendant — three interlocking rattan rings meticulously handcrafted into a floating sculpture. Both ethereal and architectural, it becomes the room’s quiet anchor, proving that sculptural handcrafted lighting can command attention without overwhelming its surroundings.
At Chalet Les Granges in Combloux, France, the Triple Orbit was selected to illuminate a luxury mountain retreat surrounded by breathtaking views of Mont Blanc. Blending alpine tradition and contemporary craftsmanship, the piece radiates harmony between nature, design, and atmosphere.

5. Living Room in France: Statement from the Ceiling
For the ROCHE Project in France, La Maison Radieuse curated the horizontally suspended Double Orbit H pendant to define the living room. Woven from fine rattan, the twin-ring form references continuity and connection, radiating a soft ambient light. It’s rattan lighting, reimagined for modern spaces—expressive, functional, and profoundly tactile.

6. Bedroom at Ibiza Gran Hotel: Lighting with Grace
In the refined setting of Ibiza Gran Hotel, bedside pendants replace traditional lamps with a flourish. The Hanging World rattan light, customised with a closed diffuser, emits a warm, diffused glow ideal for relaxation. It frees up bedside surfaces while adding vertical elegance—a masterclass in modern bedroom lighting designed with restraint and grace.

7. Sculptural Elegance for Low Ceiling : Transcence 1
At Chalet Yin & Yang by Atelier Giffon, the challenge of a low-rise ceiling became an opportunity for visual poetry. A constellation of Transcendence 1 pendants floats above the dining table, each handcrafted piece diffusing a soft, meditative glow. Together, they transform architectural limitation into layered beauty — demonstrating how Ango’s sculptural lighting can shape a mood as much as a space.
This project illustrates how Ango’s sculptural handcrafted lighting elevates even the most intimate spaces, merging technical precision with poetic ambiance.
