LUMIERE XX
Rodolfo DordoniTable lamp with direct and diffused light. Mouth-blown crystal glass with a silver nitrate mirror in liquid form that, when lit, reveals the light source. Tripod-type base in die-cast aluminum finished and polished by hand in the aluminum version, painted with liquid in the black chrome or champagne version; cakes in scratch-resistant silicone. With dimmer that allows a gradual regulation.
It was 1990 when the designer Rodolfo Dordoni asked Foscarini for a new cultured, elegant and creative interpretation of the classic screen. From that meeting, Lumiere was born, currently still a best seller in the collection and an icon in the contemporary design scene. The first Lumiere inspired the xxl and xxs versions, a new interpretation of the original project with new proportions and a more daring feature. The dualism between the blown glass diffuser and the metal base is combined with the new color palette of the table version but with a new harmony, creating a new presence in the space: essential but discreet, elegant but without ostentation, and suit day environments.
