Description
Overview
Twice as Twiggy is a large suspension lamp by Marc Sadler for Foscarini, with generous dimensions and the lightness of the famous original Twiggy design. Two LED boards light the area underneath the lamp and send an efficient up light.
Construction
A liquid-coated fibreglass-based composite forms the diffuser. The body is a large cone of painted aluminium. A PMMA diffuser with a prismatic pattern, curved at the edges, tops the cone and carries one of the two LED boards; a branded PMMA disc protects the upper board. The LED transformer sits inside a white painted metal canopy. Suspension is by a triple steel cable beside a transparent electrical cable.

Story
A large pendant with the lightness of Twiggy
The suspension lamp has dimensions that are more than generous and keeps the lightness of the famous original design.
Two LED boards, two directions
With two LED boards, the lamp lights the area underneath it and diffuses an efficient up light. The upper board belongs to the PMMA diffuser on top of the cone, and the transformer is housed in the white painted metal canopy.
