Artemide - El Poris 80 suspension lamp 

El Porís is a modern chandelier, light and rigorous but scenic and sculptural. An elementary and geometric structure, with important dimensions, welcomes in the traditional E27 connections of the light bulbs, leaving the freedom to choose which sources to use. Two or three calendered steel tubes of decreasing diameter are joined by four vertical uprights. The simplicity is apparent, reveals a design and production know-how capable of solving the complexity in elements and details that disappear in the main structure.
