Story
A sphere of light kept in glass
A blown glass bell protects the illuminated sphere and holds it in place, so the globe of light seems about to take flight into space. Satellight is an LED table lamp with a poetic lightness, drawn by Eugeni Quitllet.
Soft, warm light
The white blown glass diffuser sits inside a volume of transparent crystal that supports the luminous sphere as if by magic. The lamp gives soft, warm lighting.
