Lightweight Pendant Lamp
The Lightweight Pendant Lamp by Foscarini reduces a chandelier to an intricate, open framework of hand-welded metal.
Designed by Tom Dixon, its radiating arms carry eight small acid-etched blown-glass diffusers. The anodised metal structure and slender suspension cables keep the geometry visible, while separately supplied bulbs provide diffused light.
Every detail, considered.
