Gem Pendant Lamp
The Gem Pendant Lamp by Foscarini suspends a white hand-blown glass shade patterned with diagonal and horizontal reliefs.
Ludovica and Roberto Palomba’s design turns the rounded satin surface into a texture of light and shadow. Bulb and integrated LED versions share the same diffusing glass, transparent electrical cable and white canopy.

The Gem Pendant Lamp by Foscarini spreads light through a rounded glass shade with raised intersecting lines.
Stationary hand-blowing into an incised mold creates the textured body, which is acid-etched for diffusion. The glass measures 16⅞ inches across and 15⅛ inches high, with a steel support cable and transparent electrical cable. Dimmable versions use an integrated 2700 K LED or a separately supplied E26 bulb.

Ludovica + Roberto Palomba
Ludovica Serafini and Roberto Palomba are architects and designers who have worked together since 1994, when they founded their studio, Palomba Serafini Associati, in Milan. The practice moves between architecture, interiors, industrial design and art direction, and the two describe their approach as holistic: every element of a project is tuned so that it reads as one identity. Their furniture and lighting grow out of observing how people actually live, connecting practical function with cultural references. On this site their work runs across Arketipo, Driade, Foscarini, Talenti and Vondom, and they have designed for and art-directed houses including Zanotta, Kartell and Artemide. Their work has been recognized with the Compasso d'Oro, the Elle Decoration International Design Award, the Red Dot and the German Design Award. Roberto Palomba has also taught in the industrial design department of the Politecnico di Milano since 2003.
