Why We Love the Globe Table Lamp
Joe Colombo's The Globe Table Lamp for Oluce is a masterful fusion of industrial design and the ancient art of glassblowing, resulting in a luminary that is as captivating as it is functional. This stunning pendant showcases the power of simplicity, featuring a hand-blown glass shade that emanates a mesmerizing ambient light.
The heart of The Globe Table Lamp lies in its turned metal reflector, ingeniously placed within the glass shade. This reflector serves a dual purpose, expertly directing light downwards through the transparent glass while simultaneously enhancing the shade's inherent shimmer through added reflection. The interplay between the glass and metal elements creates a dynamic and enchanting visual experience, transforming the pendant into a focal point in any space.
Designed in 1964, The Globe is a testament to Joe Colombo's visionary approach to lighting design. The collection includes table, suspension, and wall lamp versions, each embodying the same pure geometries and unwavering commitment to balance between form and function. The transparent blown-glass sphere and the cylindrical metal reflector work in perfect harmony, projecting a timeless light that transcends trends and styles.
