Model 2042 - 9 Opaline Spheres

The Astep Model 2042 – 9 Opaline Spheres Ceiling Light is a bold and sculptural ceiling fixture that exemplifies refined Italian modern lighting. Originally designed by pioneering mid-century lighting designer Gino Sarfatti and reintroduced by Astep, this striking configuration features nine hand-blown opaline glass spheres arranged along a carefully balanced painted steel structure. The expanded composition creates a luminous architectural presence that transforms ceilings into a true design feature. Each opaline glass globe—approximately 7.9 inches in diameter—softly diffuses light to produce an even, welcoming glow throughout the space. Designed for use with dimmable E26 LED bulbs, the fixture allows you to adjust brightness levels easily, from vibrant general illumination to a softer, more intimate ambiance. The opaline glass helps eliminate harsh glare while enhancing the warmth and depth of the light. With its larger nine-sphere arrangement, this version of the Model 2042 makes a dramatic statement in spacious living rooms, dining areas, entry halls, hospitality environments, and contemporary commercial interiors. The rhythmic repetition of glowing spheres paired with a minimal steel frame reflects the elegant engineering and enduring craftsmanship associated with Italian lighting design. Both a functional ambient lighting solution and a sculptural focal point, the Model 2042 – 9 Opaline Spheres blends timeless mid-century design with modern performance. Its luminous glass globes and clean structural lines create a sophisticated centerpiece that complements a wide range of interiors—from minimalist and modern spaces to more transitional design environments.
