The elegant bright black up-lighter is made of sheet metal and rests on cast iron base.
It projects a strong light on the ceiling and radiates with its timeless outer appearance that houses the high quality LED technology while the lighting properties of the original are preserved in their entirety.

His iconic designs and collaborations with manufacturers such as Bernini, Arteluce, and Artemide, Knoll and more are still celebrated today.
