Reflecting dixon’s experimental approach to materials and form, the lamp reinterprets the classic sputnik chandelier through a playful, sculptural lens.

constructed from rotationally moulded polyethylene, the lamp features a starburst form composed of radiating arms, creating a soft, diffused glow when illuminated. The material allows light to permeate evenly, producing a warm, glare-free ambient effect, while some versions retain a subtle afterglow once switched off—enhancing its atmospheric presence.

versatile by design, the starlight can be used as a ceiling pendant, table lamp, or floor light, embodying the multifunctional ethos of late 20th-century design. Its compact yet expressive form (approx. Ø 40 cm) makes it ideal as a statement piece in both contemporary and vintage interiors.

originally produced in limited quantities and now out of production, the starlight has become an increasingly collectible design object, particularly valued by collectors of early tom dixon works.
