BUDS 2
Rodolfo DordoniDiffused light suspension lamp. Mouth-blown jacketed glass diffuser, white inside and colored outside with a glossy finish. With the “straw” interior, the “warm white” color version turns an ivory color when on and stays white when off.
During the 1990s Rodolfo Dordoni suggested for Foscarini a collection of table, earth, and suspension lamps with blown glass diffusers in striking colors and names that evoked natural elements: Fruits, Blossom, and Buds. Now Buds is renewed again, interpreting contemporary taste to achieve a refined richness and attention to materials. The protagonist of the project is, as always, the blown glass, with five-layer craftsmanship, which is immediately noticeable thanks to the wider cut of the diffuser. With the new range of colors – cool brown, cool grey, bamboo green, and white, with a straw finish on the inside – Buds assumes a double value: warm when the lamp is on and cool when it is off.
