The body is composed of two thick, hand-crafted blocks of glass, one on top of the other. The clear glass encloses amber and caramel-colored flows, interspersed with air bubbles and veining that create a profoundly icy effect.

When turned on, the lamp transforms: the light passes through the glass and makes the golden hues vibrate, diffusing a warm, enveloping glow. Each piece is unique, as the artisanal craftsmanship makes the color pattern and the arrangement of the bubbles unique. Its compact size makes it perfect for a bedside table, shelf, bookcase, or desk: an object that both illuminates and decorates, ideal for those who love Brutalist design and Italian modernism.
