Product description    
The Jelly Light is a unique, eye-catching light sculpture. The extraordinary combination of materials used creates an unusual lighting effect which can be applied almost anywhere. The technique used allows the colour and the intensity of the light to vary constantly and has therefore a special effect on the character of the environment where the Jelly Light is installed.

The light source of the Jelly Light is fitted inside a light generator. An optional colour wheel, with a range of colours, can be supplied with the generator. In combination with a programmable system you can create dynamic light and colour scenes to the light.

Light from the generator reaches the Jelly Light through fibres infused in transparent rubber. Due to the light conducting quality of the fibres the generator can be placed up to eight meters away from the Jelly Light with negligible loss of light. This means that the Jelly Light can be installed in relatively inaccessible places, while the generator remains easily accessible.
