Inspired by the <a title="MOOOI's Brilliant LED Heracleum II Chandelier Sparkles at ICFF 13" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracleum_(plant)" target="_blank">Heracleum plant</a> (aka Cow Parsnip), Moooi's new chandelier branches out from a central core, and each stem ends in a set of shining LED "leaves."

The lamp's structure is coated with conductive layers that allow it to carry a low-voltage (safe to touch) current to the LED leaves, eliminating the need for wires.
