Pinecone Suspension Lamp by FontanaArte

The Pinecone Suspension Lamp was designed for FontanaArte by Paola Navone in 2016.  The Pinecone is available as either a suspension or table lamp. The diffuser is manufactured using the ancient caged blown glass technique: the glass maker blows the molten glass blob into a metal cage, which only partly contains the blob's natural expansion. In this way, the glass surface is partially trapped by and partially escapes the cage, generating an impression of tension as the object struggles to free itself from its harness.  The cage is further enriched by the galvanic treatment that makes it look glossy and brilliant. The transparent version, in particular, reveals a two-fold structure that multiplies the scenic effect, while the metal cage pattern projects kaleidoscopic shade effects on the surrounding surfaces. On the contrary, in the white version, the glass delicately envelops the cage surface and enhances its geometric pattern, generating an elegant and visually pleasing diffused light. The lighting fixture makes a highly appealing and striking impact either switched on or off. Made in Italy by Fontana Arte.
