Description
Overview
The Melt Slim Cone Floor Light in Bronze Polished Polycarbonate (MES01BR-FUN04M2) is a floor light with an integrated module and a distorted shade. The avant-garde shade shifts between a hyper-reflective mirror when off and a translucent hot-blown glass look with rich depth once lit.
Construction
A semi-metallised, roll-wrapped process gives the polycarbonate shade its mirrored, gloss surface. Steel with carbon fibre forms the base. The light includes a 6W LED and dims inline, with the switch on a 250 cm black fabric cable.
