Description
Overview
Mercer Ceiling is the ceiling version of the Mercer lamp, dating from 2010 and signed by Joan Gaspar for Marset. Its cloth shade sits inside a structure of transparent blown glass, a subtle reversal of roles. The glass protects the shade and produces additional reflections, and the lamp gives the ceiling of a room a delicate, warm glow while providing illumination.
Construction
- Clear blown glass body
- Cloth shade made in two fabric finishes
- Opal diffuser disc on the lower part
- Two E27 lamp holders
