Its story
Exclusive to Hemming & Wills, with a hand-turned wooden top made from beech, the Aku is the smallest of all the Moom lights but its size doesn’t detract from its presence. It comes in a variety of powder coated colours or alternatively in lacquered copper, brass or aluminium which complement the wood beautifully.
Each light comes with a fabric braided cable that complements the colour of the shade. Specially paired LED bulbs suited to each light in the Moom range are also available - the latest generation of LEDs create both a warm light together with being long lasting for better environmental credentials.
The Aku has understated charm that brings contemporary design to any living space and they work just as well in a cafe, bar or restaurant.
Whether paired up over a larger dining table (they look great with our Reclaimed Table range) or kitchen island or flying solo over a circular table perhaps, the Aku is very versatile with its size and wide range of finishes.
Who are Moom?
Based on the sunny South Coast of England, Moom are experts in the craft of metal spinning. It takes years to acquire the skill and experience of this trade and the lovely guys behind behind Moom have over 50 years of it!
They take disused moulds (known as 'chucks' in the metal spining trade), which in a former life were used to make airplane nose-cones, gas cylinders or musical instruments, and breathe new life into them to make their great range of pendant lights.
It's this reuse and recycle ethos, paired with Moom's design led approach to creating stunning contemporary and industrial style lights, that fits so well with our style and values here at Hemming & Wills.
