Arbor is an iron planter chandelier: an open frame with growing space set between the light fittings, so foliage becomes part of the fixture rather than something sitting on a shelf nearby hoping to be noticed. The frame was designed around the planting rather than the other way round. That is what makes the two halves read as a single object.
The ironwork gives trailing plants something to climb along and hang down from, which is where the name comes from. Over a few months the fixture fills in and softens, turning a piece of hardware into something much closer to a living object, and it keeps changing long after every other fitting in the room has settled into the background. It is available in black for a defined graphic outline against a pale ceiling, or white for something that recedes and lets the greenery carry all of the visual weight on its own.
Use a free-draining compost and water sparingly, since the planting sits above live fittings. Hang it where the plants will get daylight as well as lamplight, and allow a little clearance around the frame on all sides so that the foliage has somewhere to grow into over the coming months.
