Curated by Bobo founder Mark Sage, who has spent the last 20 years traveling to more than 50 countries in search of discovering one-of-a-kind pieces and reimagining them with a new story, highlights of the Bobo Intriguing Objects items on display in Atlanta include:

  • Metal Beaded Chandelier – The Metal Beaded Chandelier makes a statement in any room with its beaded black iron ornaments that are set with a collection of vintage ball lights. Available in two sizes – small and large – it includes a durable black hanging chain and canopy. Because of its ornate look, the Metal Beaded Chandelier skillfully melds the baroque, contemporary and industrial styles together to create a truly unique design.

Crafted with wool fiber, details include a refined zigzag hem and a signature stripe with emblem. The pouf is available in three sizes as well as four antique color combinations including black and cream, red and brown, brown and green, and orange and gray.
