NILE
Nile is a decorative lamp of remarkable character that blends contrasting elements: the consistency of the small marble base and the delicacy and handmade warmth of the large blown glass diffuser. The dynamic arrangement of these two volumes seems to defy the law of gravity and brings sophisticated elegance to any space.
Nile è una lampada d’arredo di grande carattere che rappresenta il perfetto equilibrio tra opposti: la consistenza della piccola base in marmo incontra la delicatezza e il calore artigianale del grande diffusore in vetro soffiato a bocca. La composizione dinamica dei volumi sembra sfidare la legge di gravità e conferisce allo spazio una sofisticata eleganza.

NILE
Designed by Rodolfo Dordoni, Nile is a decorative lamp of remarkable character, with diffused and direct, downward and upward light. It embodies the perfect balance of two opposites, the delicacy of the diffuser made of white jacketed blown glass and the consistency of the polished marble base, with a unique handcrafted matte-finish. Carrara marble for the white version and Marquina marble for the black version. The lower surface of the base is protected by a rubber scratch-proof disk. The base and the diffuser, at different angles, remain in place thanks to an invisible game of weights, positions and joints in a dynamic composition. Already beautiful when off, it takes on even more allure when the light filters through the precious blown glass, shining down to the surface below and upward through the two open sides of the diffuser.
