Mite Floor Lamp
The Mite Floor Lamp by Foscarini combines glass fabric with visible reinforcing thread in a tall, tapering body.
Marc Sadler’s Yellow LED version uses Kevlar thread, while Black versions use carbon thread with either an LED or bulb source. A nickel-plated steel base supports the diffuser, which spreads light and directs illumination upward.
