A cultural legend dating back to 2,500 - 3,000 BCE, has it that once upon a time, during a torrential downpour, a graceful goddess descended from the skies wearing a giant conical hat to shield the people from a flood of rain. In the modern day, these conical hats grace fashion runways around the world and have inspired Varaluz to adapt this look to grace the ceilings of today's homes.
