The Design Story
The Pahu is built around a cylinder of glass. The range runs from Transparent Amethyst/Opal through Transparent Smoke/Opal. Besa’s signature is the glass. Every shade is made by hand and inspected in Ohio before it leaves the factory, so the small variations you see are the mark of a handmade piece, not a flaw.
