Description
Overview
Dolmen is a floor lamp by Ferruccio Laviani. Like a painting in an art gallery or a domestic sculpture, it rests against the wall, diffusing light reflected onto the wall and direct light into its surroundings. Four large holes similar to the portholes of a ship mark the front.
Construction
The frame is a laser-cut aluminium sheet bent on a pressure bending machine and hand-finished, anodised and then liquid coated with transparent varnish. Two opaline PMMA diffusers sit in it, the front one slightly embossed, with a transparent PMMA plate between them that spreads the light of multichip LEDs mounted on the long sides of the frame. The plate is laser-engraved where it aligns with the portholes, and the dimmer and the electrical cable are transparent.

Story
A lamp-sculpture against the wall
Dolmen is a piece with strong symbolic value, a lamp-sculpture that never goes unnoticed because of its exceptional shape and its unusual positioning against the wall.
Portholes that concentrate the light
Four large holes, similar to ship portholes, run down the panel. The plate behind the diffusers is laser-engraved in the areas aligned with them to concentrate the reflection of the light.
