Sfera

The lamp line in hand-intertwined wicker is the result of the creative bond between Bottega Intreccio and architect Maurizio Bernabei. A modular system of interweaved cones, embellished by lampshades of various pure geometric shapes. The result is “naturally essential” and at the same time “harmoniously variable”, each piece with its own identity, its “character”. Each shape and each lampshade interacts with the light and space uniquely. Each creation of the Caratteri collection is hand-made by the Masters of Mogliano, exclusively with natural materials. Each element is a unique, unrepeatable piece. Pendant light with lampshade in intertwined wicker, a natural eco-sustainable material typical of the Oriental tradition to process bamboo in order to extract the more malleable core. The spherical shape snaps on the cone trunk, recurring element of all Caratteri pendant lamps. 138 metres of wicker are carefully selected and subject to 5 preliminary work phases and then skilfully shaped by the Masters of Mogliano during over 7 hours of patient intertwining. The Sfera lamp is subject to a water-repellent treatment of natural, green, yellow, light blue and red colour. It can be also lacquered in white, black or beige colours. The overall sizes of the sphere are 60Øx95h cm. All elements are made of natural materials and are guaranteed for indoor use. For Outdoor applications, as long as they are sufficiently protected from atmospheric agents and not directly exposed to the sun or water, it is recommended to install them below: gazebos, porches or spaces protected from atmospheric agents.
