BON JOUR VERSAILLES LAMP BACCARAT PHILIPPE STARCK, The BON JOUR VERSAILLES collection, with two models available in crystal and polymethacrylate (PMMA), solves the paradox between industrial precision and artisanal know-how, between aristocracy and democracy, between science and poetry.
The heir to an earlier «Bon Jour» lamps collaboration between Flos and Starck and to the «Versailles» candle-holder created by Baccarat, the BON JOUR VERSAILLES collection reveals timeless lines with unfailing lightness and empirical modernity that evoke our collective memory of the past, of the present and the future.
“At the Palace of Versailles, the Sun King was bored. One day he had the vision of a flash of lightning, new and magical, other than his own sunlight illuminating his Hall of Mirrors. He dreamed of it, and even made it his coat of arms. A few centuries later, Flos and Baccarat made it reality, combining the highest technology to their timeless know-how.And History became modern.”
Philippe Starck
The BON JOUR VERSAILLES lamp sits on top of a finely sculpted transparent crystal or polymethacrylate stand whose lines are reminiscent of the Maison Baccarat most iconic pieces. Crowned with a chrome plate, the lamp features a unique and innovative LED Edge Lighting technology developed by Flos. This revolutionary system, coupled with an elegant lampshade in pleated fabric, allows the diffusion of warm and organic light that reveals spaces, thanks to an infinite optical play, and like a reflection of magical transparency, the lamp, bathed in light, seems to come alive from the inside.

STARCK
Philippe Starck is an internationally acclaimed French creator, designer and architect.
His profound comprehension of contemporary mutations, his determination to change the world, his anticipatory concern for environmental implications, his love of ideas, his desire to defend the intelligence of usefulness – and the usefulness of intelligence – have accompanied one iconic creation after the other. From everyday products such as furniture and lemon squeezers, to revolutionary mega-yachts, individual windmills, electric bikes or hotels and restaurants that aspire to be wondrous, stimulating and intensely vibrant places.
This untiring and rebellious citizen of the world, who considers it his duty to share his ethical and subversive vision of a fairer planet, creates unconventional places and objects whose purpose is to be “good” before being beautiful. Philippe Starck and his wife Jasmine, mostly live on an airplane or in «middles of nowhere».
