The lamp features a gracefully curved adjustable chrome arc, over 2,5 m long, which extends from a sturdy base, creating a floating effect for the light source.
The lamp provides an adjustable up/down tilt and the ability to increase the extension of the headband. There is over 1 meter of adjustment distance, giving many set-up possibilities.

The base is made of two travertine pieces with different hues, providing stability while enhancing the luxurious aesthetic of the piece.

The most eye-catching element is the Murano glass shade, which is beautifully hand-blown with a delicate, wavy cappuccino pattern. The glass has a warm, diffused glow when illuminated, highlighting the artistry of Venetian glassmaking.
