The Large Seagull Chandelier by Malane Lighting is a standout in the "Biophilic Motion" category. Designed to capture the effortless, sweeping grace of birds in flight, it translates the organic silhouette of a seagull into a minimalist, luminous sculpture.
It is a favorite for architects looking to add "visual air" to a room—filling a large volume without the heavy, crowded feeling of a traditional crystal or metal-heavy fixture.
The Seagull Chandelier is defined by its clean, curved lines and its "weightless" appearance. Each "bird" is a single, sleek light module that resembles wings spread mid-glide. The Large or Grand configurations—often featuring 12 to 18 individual birds—are the premier choice for grand stairwells, lofts, and open-concept living areas where the objective is to create a serene, sky-like atmosphere indoors.
Sculptural Grace & LED Integration
"Birds in Motion" Aesthetic: Rather than a static frame, the seagulls are suspended at varying heights and angles. This creates a sense of a flock in mid-maneuver, which adds a rhythmic, kinetic energy to the ceiling.
Integrated LED Technology: The model uses ultra-slim, high-CRI (90+) LEDs built directly into the "wing" housing. This eliminates the need for bulky bulbs and allows the "bird" to maintain its razor-thin, elegant profile.
Support for Customized Drawings: As part of Malane’s "Bespoken" service, you can provide your room’s dimensions, and their team will design a custom "flight path." This ensures the flock follows the specific sightlines of your room or the curve of your staircase.
Multi-Tone Tuning: Features "Dynamic White" tuning. You can shift between Warm Light (3000K) for a sunset-like glow and Cool Light (6000K) for a crisp, high-visibility daytime look.
Designer Tips
The "Ascending Flock" Stairwell: Install a 12 or 18-head cluster in a spiral staircase. Arrange the birds so they appear to be "flying upward" toward the roof. This guides the eye through the vertical space and makes the ceiling feel infinitely higher.
The "Horizon" Dining Room: For long rectangular tables, request a Linear Custom Drawing. Instead of a circular cluster, the seagulls are arranged in a long, narrow "wave" that spans the length of the table, providing even light while keeping the view across the room open.
Minimalist Pairing: Because the Seagull is a highly sculptural piece, it works best in rooms with clean lines. Avoid busy wallpaper or heavy drapes; let the bird silhouettes act as the primary "art" on the wall.
Care Guide
Dust Resistance: The wings are treated with an anti-static nano-coating to prevent household dust from clinging to the white acrylic shades.
Cleaning: Do not use wet cloths, which can leave streaks on the LED housing. Use a soft microfiber duster or a canister of compressed air to "blow off" any debris once every 6 months.
Longevity: The integrated LEDs are rated for 50,000+ hours. Malane’s modular design allows for individual "birds" to be unplugged and replaced from the canopy without dismantling the entire fixture.
Lead Time: Because of the custom drawing and hand-assembly process, lead times typically range from 10 to 12weeks.
