Design
This lamp comprises three textured, opaline glass elements that cascade elegantly, creating a fluid, organic form. Each glass piece refracts light beautifully, producing a warm and inviting glow. The stainless steel fixture adds a modern, industrial contrast to the glass, and the spiral cord enhances its visual dynamism. The curved edges and open-ended design of the glass elements contribute to the lamp's airy aesthetic, allowing light to flow freely and project captivating patterns on surrounding surfaces.This piece exemplifies the marriage of artistry and function, making it more than just a light source. Nason’s LS 187 seamlessly integrates timeless craftsmanship with modern sensibilities, establishing itself as a centerpiece for contemporary and vintage interiors alike.
