The idea behind Stradivari was to create a lamp with a bold form and strong personality embodying a style reminiscent of former times. The curved metal band running parallel to the lampshade not only secures it in place but primarily allows its silhouette to resemble the bow of a violin. The name came about spontaneously and conjures up classical tradition synonymous with music and style. Embellished with artisanal hand-made crystal, each piece is evocative of typical Italian craftsmanship, particularly that of Venice. The result is a contemporary lamp which, thanks to the selection of fine materials used, is notable for its elegance. Its design allows for different configurations such as pendant, table and wall-mounted applique versions. Also available as side lights, Stradivari comes in a choice of gold, bronze and chrome metal finishes.
