The base traces a continuous wave, a solid tube that folds back on itself before rising to carry the globe.
This freedom of form comes from 1980s Italian postmodern design, which broke straight lines and brought bold colour into furniture.
The burgundy lacquered resin heightens the effect: light glides over the curves and highlights every bend of the shape.
As a result, the lamp is as much to be looked at as to give light.
Placed on a desk or a console, it does the same job as a sculpture, only more useful.
The opal acrylic globe is balanced on the upper end of the base.
Its 15-centimetre diameter gives it enough surface to diffuse widely, without ever revealing the filament.
The resulting light is enveloping and free of harsh shadows, pleasant for reading in the evening as well as for lighting a corner of the room as accent lighting.
The lamp measures 35 centimetres high and 28 wide, with a bulb included and a two-year warranty.
A beautiful shape is not enough: the material still has to accept it. Before approving a design, we go through it with the workshops that will make it. Here is how one of our pieces came to life.

It all starts with a trend. We follow what circulates on Pinterest, Instagram and interior blogs, and we spot the styles on the rise. Here it was the natural look: plant fibres, wide shapes, warm tones. We also look at where the piece will live, and this one needs height or width: above a large table, in a stairwell, under a cathedral ceiling.

The style appelle la fibre végétale, mais toutes ne se valent pas. L'osier casse au cintrage, le jonc de mer reste raide. Le rotin, lui, est une liane de palmier grimpant d'Asie du Sud-Est : trempée, elle devient souple et accepte n'importe quelle courbe, puis se fige en séchant. Sur une pièce de cette envergure, ce rapport entre souplesse au montage et tenue une fois sec décide de tout.

This is where many fine ideas stop. Before going further, we ask the workshop what the material really allows: at that span, will rattan hold? The answer comes down to one simple step, soaking. The strands go into water until they turn supple, they can then be bent without breaking, and they set as they dry. Once feasibility is confirmed, we move on to the drawing.

A flared, very open shape, almost a hat, with rods spaced far enough apart for the light to pass between them. The proportions are drawn and redrawn: too flat and the shade dazzles, too deep and it traps the light. A real piece is then assembled and switched on, and we look at the radiating pattern it casts on the ceiling.
Once the design is approved, the workshop starts the production run. The pieces reach the warehouse, where order pickers wrap them one by one before dispatch, ready to dress a new home.
