Details
"Ideas are often the result of looking at everyday objects through different eyes. Caboche, for example, is the result of observing a pearl bracelet. This idea by Patricia and Eliana has become a precious, indeed splendid, lamp that is also modular. The first prototype of Caboche was made with glass spheres on a metallic structure, but the result was weighty, expensive and, most importantly, did not create that magical luminosity that we had in mind. Turn on Caboche, the light within penetrates the spaces between the transparent spheres and, at the same time, is spread from the inside by these same spheres like hundreds of luminous crystals. Diamonds? No, polymethyl methacrylate. The structure in polymethyl methacrylate and the spheres in the same material transformed Patricia and Eliana’s original idea into a form of pure light, whose appearance changes according to your viewpoint. Every sphere offers itself to the light in a different way, reflecting an original vision of it and taking on the role of light source. It is a jewel of creativity
and also of technology: with a single spherical element and a structure with a modular arch an entire collection of models can be created, in crystal or yellow gold versions."
