A pair of wall lamps from the iconic Poliedri series, designed by Italian architect and designer Carlo Scarpa in the 1960s. Each lamp consists of hand-blown glass prisms from Murano, joined together in a geometric structure that spreads the light in a beautifully soft and faceted glow.
Carlo Scarpa (1906–1978) is known for his way of combining modernist forms with traditional craftsmanship. In collaboration with Venini on Murano, he developed a series of groundbreaking glass objects and lamps in the mid-20th century, of which the Poliedri series has become one of the most sought-after.
