Folio Piccola Wall Lamp

The Folio Piccola Wall Lamp, produced by Italian manufactur Foscarini, was created by Alessandro Vecchiato and Carlo Urbinati. Urbinati is Roman-born and a practitioner whose previous work ranges from architecture to the auto industry. Foscarini is a prominent lighting manufacturer based in Venice, Italy, famed for incorporating traditional hand blown Murano glass.

The Folio Piccola Wall Lamp has a fine patterning on the glass surface, while the soft outline of the lamp and the slight curve of its surface are traceable to Urbinati's appreciation of natural forms. The shape also shows that the Folio Piccola Wall Lamp, however beautiful, is designed to be secondary to the lighting effect it produces when in use. It is perfect for creating a warm, relaxed glow that complements the more prominent features of an interior - it can be used with a dimmer to get the light levels just right.

Compatible with many different styles of domestic design, it is small enough for bedrooms as well as kitchens and more open living spaces: it measures 33 x 25 cm and stands only 8cm off the wall. All in all, it offers the function and beauty that admirers of Foscarini have come to expect.
