Description
Overview
Twiggy Grid Outdoor Tavolo is the table lamp of the outdoor Twiggy Grid range, a design by Marc Sadler for Foscarini with a woven lampshade. The light is direct and aimed down.
Construction
Stem and shade are liquid-coated fibreglass-based composite. The shade starts as composite ribbons laid manually on a mould; their overlaps make the woven surface, hand-coated afterwards, and one more ribbon layer closes the top and bottom rims. Multichip LEDs are fitted around the edge of an aluminium frame that serves as heat dissipator. Their light reaches a transparent PMMA sheet engraved by laser at the centre, and an opaline PMMA disc softens it. A round plate of polyester powder coated metal forms the base. The cable, black neoprene for outdoor use, ends in a Schuko plug and has no push-button panel.

Story
A table lamp with a woven shade
The woven lampshade is the characteristic feature of the table lamp in the Twiggy Grid family. Marc Sadler designed this XL table version for Foscarini, with a characteristic woven lampshade and direct down light.
Ribbons laid by hand
The weave is made by overlapping composite tapes, laid by hand on a mould and coated by hand afterwards.
