Story
Waves that stay visible when off
The glass of Gem Semi Wall has waves and reliefs that run across its surface, and the graphic pattern makes the lamp a vivid presence even when it is not in use. The design is by Ludovica and Roberto Palomba.
Glass blown inside an incised mould
The three-dimensional facets come from glassblowing inside a mould with incisions.
