Parola Table Lamp
The FontanaArte Parola table lamp by Gae Aulenti and Piero Castiglioni combines a glossy blown-glass shade with a transparent borosilicate glass stem and beveled glass base.
The rounded shade is offered in amber or white, contrasting with the clear supporting elements. Diffused, dimmable light reveals the different glass surfaces and the lamp’s slender vertical construction.
