Story
Italian marble tables of the 1970s
Danish designer Aleksandar Lazic searched for simple and clever solutions in any given space and looked to Italian marble tables from the 1970s when he created the Reverse lamp. The conical travertine base and the curved, bronzed aluminium shade give it a balanced expression.
Light across raw stone
The travertine is left unworked so that the light highlights its natural imperfections and reveals shadows. The dimmer sits where the shade and base meet, and the light source is a dim-to-warm LED.
