Etch Candle by Tom Dixon
Etch Candle is a holder for small candles perfect for Christmas gifts. A detail designed by Tom Dixon.
A digitally manufactured candle holder etched from metal. Etch Candle is made by employing an industrial process used to produce electronic parts, the method allows for detailed patterns to be cut directly onto the metal, creating a mass of intricate shadows when lit. Also available in brass, stainless steel and as a pendant light.
Binic by Foscarini
Binic is the name of a small lighthouse on the coast of Brittany, the region where the designer Ionna Vautrin comes from. It is the inspiring theme of this small table lamp filled with character. Its colorful and unusual shape whets the imagination and is immediumtely appealing.
The round glossy finish upper volume is supported by a conical satin finish base, casting an intense and uniform spotlight downwards. With its palette of 6 trendy colours, Binic is in tune with the personality of whoever chooses his or her favourite version and it blends in seamlessly with a range of domestic environmets and styles: a study, a child’s or an adult’s bedroom or a personal corner in a living room. A packaging designed by Ionna Vautrin herself, unique and fun like the lamp itself, suggests Binic as a “take away” object, to be given away as a present, or for personal use.
Cuboluce by Cini e Nils
Cuboluce, a lamp for reading in bed. Forget fumbling the light switch: when you open the lid, the light goes on, when closed it, it goes off. So simple is Cuboluce Cini e Nils. It emits a concentrated light beam that can be directed by using the lid/reflector.
This little jewel is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art New York, perfect Christmas gift for lovers of minimalist design.
Eclisse by Artemide
Eclisse is a lamp designed by the Italian designer Vico Magistretti for Artemide in 1967. It is one of the most important industrial design products of the twentieth century and became one of the symbols of Italian design in the world. It is part of the permanent collection of the Triennale Design Museum in Milan, part of MoMA permanent collection of New York and it has been exhibited in many museums devoted to design, contemporary art and furnishings around the world. It was awarded the Compasso d’Oro Award in 1967 and it is still sold today.
Eclisse is a table lamp, a direct and diffused light, but also designed for wall mounting and the concept , as you might guess, is derived from the astronomical phenomenon that is reflected not only in its name, but also in the formal and technical characteristics of the lamp.
Flama lamp by Danese Milano
FLAMA LAMP light is a poem created by Marti Guixé for DANESE XMAS 2011: a candle holder that becomes the magnetic basis where a LED diffuser is placed to direct light as you prefer.
The more traditional light is combined with the most technologically advanced source: a good light, friendly with people and the environment. Simply, an original gift to continuously reinvent.
“FLAMA lamp The history of light in your hands FLAMA is a lamp that integrates fire as a proto light and at the same time the cutting edge led technology, a kind of meta lighting device.
A lamp you can touch.
The object is made of several pieces that can be easily put together in different ways in order to build a lamp typology according to your light requirements.
You do not adapt to the light, the light adapts to you.
The idea is that depending on the position, order and sequence of the parts, you can build an entirely different lighting; this fact promotes the perception of FLAMA as the first lighting object with a quantic behavior.” Martí Guixé 2011
