Here’s a perfect example of upcycling, made in Kabambî! For several years now, we’ve been making pendant lights from metal cans sourced from Burkina Faso. We buy the cut-outs, produced by the workshop in Burkina, which cuts the cans and hammers the resulting sheets by hand to form the cut-outs, which Martin then drills and fits with electrical components.
Models unique
The metal cans that we use for the creation of our lights (suspensions and recently, wall lights) are unique pieces that we buy in Burkina Faso. These cans are salvaged and worked by local craftsmen. The colours are original and have been weathered over time. Martin then drills them and assembles them into a lamp using high quality, modular Italian electrical equipment. The result? Unique and original workshop-style lamps!

Kabambi can only be charmed by the drawings of Stéphanie LedouxShe is a travelling artist. Her portraits drawn in the four corners of the world are a mode of communication that frees itself from the language barrier. Mixing travel, emotion and human relationships, Stephanie's drawings come to life in her studio after her travels, from her field notebooks.
Kabambî offers a selection of certified reproductions of Stéphanie Ledoux’s works in the form of posters and postcards, available in-store and via the online shop.
