Story
The successor of the first Kaipo
Kaipo TOO follows the first Kaipo design, which dates back to 2001, and the lamp still has the classic shape of the archetypical lamp base. Its feminine contours add grace and elegance.
Glass from Venice
The design and its preferred materials proved a challenge, so Moooi searched the globe for high-skilled craftsmen, and the search led to Venice, home of traditional glass blowing. The transparency of the glass creates an airy stratification.
