Foscarini Caboche Grande Floor Lamp - composed by spheres of polymetylmetacrylate, transparent (trasparente) or gold yellow (giallo oro). A screen in white satinized blown glass guarantees maximum diffusion of light and prevents glare. A solid base is provided by the original design of the stem.
When two excellent designers work together on a project, one of two things happens: a) they but heads like rams and generally fail to get along and furthermore fail to produce anything OR b) they put their heads together and succeed brilliantly. Such is the case with the splendorous Caboche Lamp, designed by Patricia Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto for Foscarini. The Caboche Collection includes a suspension lamp, table lamp, floor lamp, and ceiling-mounted lamp.
The intricate crystal balls that make up Caboche are individual polymetylmetacrylate spheres. The crystal balls are available in clear or gold, they shine like enchanted objects from fairy tales: little pieces of moonbeam or sunshine. - Alicita Rodriguez
