Story
Meteorite in mid-flight
The wall and ceiling lamps are reminiscent of a meteorite crystallized in mid-flight, with an asymmetrical and irregular shape in opaque blown glass.
Pieces that differ slightly
The open-mold glass-blowing procedure gives shapes that are slightly different from each other, so the lamps form a collection of consistently unique pieces, produced in series with the distinctive characteristics of handmade craftsmanship.
