Model 2042 - 6 Opaline Spheres

With the Le Sfere Plafone, Model 2042/3 from 1963, Gino Sarfatti has created yet another beautiful interpretation of the luminous sphere. This refined ceiling light is composed of six blown opaline glass spheres, each measuring 20 cm in diameter, supported by a painted steel mount and structure with a Black or Champagne finish. The spheres are gently held in place by the painted steel ring in a refined embrace that lends the luminaire a graphic expression and brings forth Le Sfere’s distinctive aesthetic.
