Octopus Chandelier

680 Ann St, Fortitude Valley QLD

Velvet flocked wood, brass, glass and gold leaf finishing creates this amazing light that runs from the 1st floor through to the ground floor over the bar at Laruche. 

Using wood turned by Ian Windross, glass blown by Lucas Sultan and a multitude of craft techniques this amazing chandelier is an Avante Garde bespoke creation.

"It’s not often we get to use the word ‘phantasmagorical’ in a venue but it could almost have been invented to describe this new venue in Fortitude Valley. Laruche is owned by Elie Moubarak (he of Lychee Bar fame) and he’s once again joined forces with designer Remo Vallance to create the look and feel of the bar and supperclub"

"Laruche is a veritable Alladin’s cave of the kitsch, the cool and the eclectic. Moubarak says the interiors “swing wildly between the beautiful, the macabre and the decadent”.
