This particular example boasts an extremely rare and captivating color combination of brushed silver, deep black, and vibrant purple/lilac. The Trava series' design principle is based on a sophisticated optical reflection radiating from the center: Two black louvers form the core. from there, two brushed silver louvers fan out symmetrically upwards and downwards. The design highlight lies hidden within: The inner surfaces of the louvers are painted in a rich purple. When switched on, this creates a spectacular lighting effect: The warm light refracts off the colored inner surfaces, allowing the purple to shimmer subtly and atmospherically through the gaps, resulting in completely glare-free, magical room illumination. The condition is truly remarkable: The light fixture is in mint, collector's condition. Nevertheless, for maximum safety, we have completely inspected and rewired it – fitting it with an elegant, lilac-colored textile cable to complement the interior design.
