Custom Pot Rack Chandelier

Jason finished and installed this beautiful pot rack chandelier just before Easter (the day before actually, which is also the reason for the unpainted support beams). This was a particularly fun project because it had a "surprise" element to it. Our client (for whom we've done exterior work before) thought she was getting a pot rack chandelier from an online retailer. But her designer, Hampton Warren, collaborated with us (as he often does) to design something better and one-of-a-kind! This is what we made!

We designed it to have maximum pot hanging capacity. Pots can be hung from hooks placed on the outside of the base ring or from hooks on the lattice inside of the base ring. We placed "candles" around the top ring using collared scrolls almost like hanging sconces. To finish the project we developed an antiqued/aged brass faux finish to match the motif of the kitchen.

Our client was not only surprised but delighted when Jason showed up with the pot rack for installation (which in turn delighted both Jason and Hampton). 

As always, thanks for checking in!
