Rituals 1

Overview

Ludovica+Roberto Palomba created the Rituals 1 Floor lamp for Foscarini. The Rituals floor lamps take their inspiration from traditional Oriental paper lanterns, and this one carries a hand-blown glass diffuser marked by thin engravings.

Construction

Engraved lines decorate the glass and filter the light, which spreads warm and soft. Moulded stripes, belt grinding and an acid bath produce the plaster-like surface. The stand is a rod with a support base that holds liquid coated metal ballast. A dimmer fitted on the transparent cable sets brightness gradually.

Oriental paper lanterns in glass

The Rituals floor lamps draw their inspiration from traditional Oriental paper lanterns, but they are made with mouth-blown glass. Thin engravings mark it, reminiscent of the grinding technique.

Warm and soft light

The horizontal lines are decorative and filter the light at the same time, so the light is diffused into the surroundings, warm and soft. The base is made in three colours.
