"class 40 pendant information:

class from leucos (previously manufactured by itre, like these lamps) is a pendant lamp with a hand-blown diffuser in satin white glass. A beautiful pendant lamp for large open spaces or ceiling environments. Designed by r. Toso"

itre is a modern italian company that produces lighting in murano glass. It was founded by carlo nason, who started the company in murano, italy.

leucos and itre are both italian high-end lighting brands that merged under the same group (leucos usa/fdv group) in 2008. Although they share production quality and a focus on design, they have different aesthetic approaches:

leucos is primarily known for its expertise in traditional glass craftsmanship, particularly using venetian ‘incamiciato’ (layered) opal glass to create elegant, modern and often classic-modern lamps.

itre (sometimes stylised as itre) functions more as a design laboratory or ‘experimental’ department, focusing on contemporary, avant-garde and technical designs using a wider range of materials, including metal, plastic, textiles and composites.


relationship: itre is a brand under the leucos umbrella.

style: leucos is known for its glass craftsmanship; itre is known for experimental materials and avant-garde shapes.

market: both target the high-end residential and hotel sectors.

common ownership: both are part of the former fdv group and now operate under the name leucos, where they often appear together in collections.
