Description
Overview
Laya is a portable lantern by Giò Forma that combines ribbed hand-blown glass with an interchangeable fabric cover.
Build
LED sources sit in the upper part of the lantern. The blown glass interacts with their light and casts soft shadows and reflections on the surrounding surfaces. Each piece is unique, shaped by time-honoured craftsmanship. The cover wraps around the glass, shields the direct view of the sources and forms the handle that makes the lantern easy to carry.
Power
A USB-C port, hidden beneath the handle, charges the battery at the base, which gives up to 8 hours of autonomy. Power is 2.4 W, with a touch dimmer and IP54 protection.
Dimensions
Height 410 mm.
Story
Glass and cover
Laya has a clean, essential design that brings together material presence and fine details. The ribbed hand-blown glass is wrapped by a fabric cover, and the same cover forms the handle.
