Fontana Arte Designer table lamp Bianca made of glass, 50 cm

Handmade table lamp Bianca can also be used as a floor lampBianca is a model by the Swedish designer Matti Klenell, who has made a name for himself primarily as a glass artist. Glass is also the main component of this table and floor lamp. The well-formed, almost spherical body consists of solid-blown glass, which was cut on the ribbon and then dipped in acid, which creates the typical silky effect of the glass. The blowing of glass with such a large diameter, as is the case with this model, requires enormous skills and talents, because, according to old Venetian tradition, no auxiliary tools are provided. The glassblower can rely solely on his craftsmanship and lung power. The surface of the glass has a light structure reminiscent of tracks in freshly fallen snow. Due to the nature of the glass, the lighting effect is not only glare-free, but also particularly cosy and homely. The integrated dimmer, which is integrated in the transparent cable, also contributes to the cosiness. Due to its size, Bianca can be used as a table or floor lamp.
