Chouchin 2 Reverse Suspension Lamp

The Chouchin 2 Reverse Suspension Lamp has been created by Ioanna Vautrin for the brand Foscarini. The lamp is named Chouchin which is Japanese for traditional paper and bamboo lanterns. They are typically used outside bars and restaurants as well as outside homes as lucky charms.

The Chouchin 2 Reverse Suspension Lamp is a play on colours. Different shades and tones form an aesthetic contrast against the white, blown glass that the diffuser is made of. It has a di-user support made of injection moulded transparent polycarbonate and a suspension cable made of stainless steel. Its electrical cable is transparent which creates the illusion that the lamp is floating in the air. This height-adjustable lamp has the shape of an elongated oval with a coloured rim at the bottom. It looks like an inverted jar. The lower end is open so that it can accommodate the light source. It comes with an LED bulb that makes it possible to dim the lamp via a TRIAC dimmer.

The Chouchin 2 Reverse Suspension Lamp has a height of 43cm and a diameter of 22cm. Its cable is 340cm long and its suspension height is 383cm. It comes with differently coloured rims. The lamp has an E27 socket. The light source is included in the delivery. Replacement shades are available for sale.
