Entry Description

Soft Blown highlights the creative possibilities of porcelain lighting making it possible to approach any shape and type of decoration whilst establishing a creative exchange with unique results.
Soft Blown is a collection composed of two lamps: the Afloat chandelier and the Airbloom table lamp. Available in a variety of color ranges, the collection draws inspiration from the convivial spirit of balmy, sunny days when the streets are lined with performance artists effortlessly crafting colorful balloon creations.
The collection comprises two key pieces: the Afloat chandelier and the Airbloom table lamp. Both pieces draw inspiration from the convivial spirit of balmy, sunny days and the colorful, intricate creations of street performers. The Afloat chandelier features a central body with six modules, each adorned with globe shades crafted from translucent white porcelain. Similarly, the Airbloom table lamp consists of a white central lampshade made of translucent hand-ornamented porcelain, accompanied by a series of modules available in three color ranges in a glossy finish.
Each component of the Soft Blown collection is meticulously crafted from porcelain, a material known for its delicate beauty and timeless appeal. The porcelain elements are handmade by skilled artisans, leveraging decades of expertise in porcelain artistry.
