Description
Overview

Story
A moon in a glass cone
The pendant reads as a moon suspended in the air: a luminous core that the transparent body appears to carry. The design is poetic and surprising, and the lamp is entirely hand-blown glass.
Light without glare
The white diffuser is set in the transparent body, and the lamp transmits warm, soft light, completely without glare.
