Table lamp Boltons

Boltons is a lamp that combines a patented optical study with the beauty of hand-crafted glass. A transparent body supports an orientable metal disc. The body is created with an unique gesture, a traditional technique that includes an air bubble inside the glass. The complete transparency highlights the thickness of the material that welcomes the blow of the master glassmaker, high in the upper part, thinner on the sides where it stretches. This poetic and evocative form also optically defines the ability to control and move light on the surface. A lens at the base directs the entire emission upwards, controlling it precisely so that the disk can then reflect it according to its inclination. The geometry of the glass allows a wide freedom of movement of the upper reflector fixed with a magnetic sphere. The glass, crossed by the light beam, comes alive with reflections without losing the efficiency of the optical system.
