Another feather in our cap - the Caribou Chandelier designed by Foley Designs, has won recognition in the European Product Design Awards, 2020. This prestigious honour comes close on the heels of our Good Design Award win, a few months back.

The Caribou Chandelier was born out of our desire to create a new, more sustainable version of the traditional chandelier. First in the Bespoke Chandelier Collection being created and developed by Foley Designs, the Caribou was inspired by the antlers of a deer and is a wireless, customisable and hassle-free chandelier.

We are currently accepting orders for the Caribou Chandelier and are open to customisation. To find out more, reach out to us at [email protected].

A critically endangered crocodile on the brink of extinction, the Gharial is quite unmistakable with its long, thin jaws that come in handy when catching fish. The reptile gets its name from the pot-like large bulbous growth (known as ghara), found on the tip of the snout on the male of the species that plays a role in mating rituals. In fact, these are the only crocodiles with such an obvious difference between males and females.

As is the curse with most stand-out animals with such unique features, the Gharial is hunted wildly for its skin, ghara and other body parts. However, the multitude of threats faced by this species doesn’t end at exotic poaching. The damming of their river habitat is depleting the water supply by altering the river flow. The Gharial, with its short stubby legs, is incapable of trudging across river banks in search of new habitat and as a consequence are suffering. Additionally, illegal river sand-mining, increased agricultural activities, and high water traffic also disturbs and threatens their existing habitat, as well as negatively affecting their nesting and basking habits. Another major threat is overfishing as it leads to a lack of prey as well as accidental capture and injury by fishermen.

Consequently, their numbers have dwindled drastically. Once widespread across the Indian subcontinent, these large crocodiles are now restricted to as few as five severely fragmented and depleted populations across India and Nepal.

The Gharial has been listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, as a result of a catastrophic population decline by up to 98% since the 1940s. There are now thought to be fewer than 250 adult individuals remaining in the wild. Once found across the riverlands of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal and Pakistan, the Gharial currently survives in several severely fragmented populations in India and Nepal. Several conservation efforts have been tasked with eliminating the “critically endangered” status of this unique reptile and bringing their numbers back up to maintain the significant role they play on the ecological balance of the river systems of our country.

Once found all over the plains of the Indian subcontinent, the Blackbuck is one of the most graceful animals and is the only representative of the Genus Antilope in our country. However, rapid industrialisation, poaching and hunting have resulted in a sharp decline in the total number of Blackbucks in India. Although preventative measures, including a hunting ban have been implemented to protect this endangered species, we still have a long way to go to undo all the harm that has been done so far.
With our limited edition Blackbuck PIECE souvenir, we are striving to raise enough awareness to facilitate proper wildlife conservation and stricter measures against poaching of this graceful creature that once thronged the great green plains of our country.

Taking inspiration from olde ways of communication we have used the theme “Message in a bottle” for our PIECE collection.
With our limited edition PIECE souvenirs, we aspire to send out the message of the importance of environmental conservation with the hope that it drives home the importance to preserve our planet Earth in all its natural glory. . .

The initial sketch and the intuitive foresight of our Creative Director Michael Foley presented a clear vision to create a collection that brings together two things that we highly value; protecting our wildlife and creating a unique design finished with exquisite craftsmanship.

The finely crafted piece encased in glass brings out the fragility of our environment and the immense, immediate need to help conserve our Earth and all its inhabitants.

Each Dragonfly PIECE souvenir has been handcrafted through environmentally sustainable methods and materials. The intricate sculpture of the delicate dragonfly is housed in an upcycled bottle. Cast with metal alloys, the 3D sculpted dragonfly is perched on top of a handcrafted teak wood base. A final antique finish adds to the charm of the piece.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us how something tiny can have massive global effect. It is important to understand that as the dominant species of the planet, it is our responsibility to take care of the environment around us, so that even the tiniest creatures, like the humble dragonfly can thrive and maintain its role in the global ecological balance. Through our Dragonfly PIECE, we are trying to raise awareness and start the conversation about how we need to look towards preserving our country's, and by consequence, the world’s environmental equilibrium.

As a design studio, we have always strived to go beyond consultancy.

We have created a unique line of symbolic pieces as a means of building awareness towards conservation.

Our first line focuses on bringing to life a range of endangered species in India that are threatened and remain neglected with time.
