FontanaArte - Fontanella L table lamp black
Two materials: metal and glass, as in the historical tradition of fontanaarte. The metal acts as a base and contains the light source while the glass, the real protagonist of the project, is skilfully worked by skilled craftsmen in a process of fusion between a portion of transparent glass and a satin from which the light is spread. Fontanella is formed by the union of two glasses: the inner tube is threaded, sandblasted and finally joined with bubble-shaped blown glass. What makes the workmanship particularly refined is the manual joining of the two parts that requires the skilful technique of a craftsman. Moreover, glass, always the material par excellence of fontanaarte products, is the most crystalline existing on the market. To complete the contemporaneity of this fountain piece, we add the possibility of using bulbs, dimmable and not, with maximum energy savings.
