Foscarini lamps | the new Doll by Foscarini design

An intimate and personal story, told in a simple and direct way. The Doll says, the new lamp born from the encounter between the sensitivity and the unlimited creativity of a young designer Ionna Vautrin with experience in design and technological innovation of Foscarini.

Presence a warm, friendly, from the essential charm and evocative, always keep close to him, like the wooden dolls of Japanese tradition - the "Kokeshi Dolls" - which draws on both the lines for the name. How small handcrafted pieces that inspires, provokes Doll with its stylized emotion immediately.

Two separate volumes - a round head and a circular body - give life to an idea and create a new character who inhabits the landscape of contemporary homes. Compact and portable like an old oil lamp, which resembles in shape and handling, moves to different rooms, lending itself to endless situations and uses: on the table to make it less dark night, on a table or a desk to brighten the day , always with a personal touch, charming and playful at the same time.

The two forms that comprise Doll are made of two different materials. Both in the history of Foscarini and recurrent in his expressive vocabulary: blown glass and plastic. The volumes are separated and underlined with a black ring, which becomes graphic sign of connection, acting at the same time as a support for the internal light source.

While the blown glass speaks the language assured of a warm light, bright and natural, the plastic it is made of the cylindrical base draws on the expressive resources of color, adding more customization options.

Distinctive and elegant in green, comfortable and elegant in gray, softly classic ivory, lively and outgoing in red: the distinct character of the little lamp is emphasized by four shades available, which allow everyone to choose their ideal Doll.

A personality emphasized by specially designed packaging, which makes it even more a great little gift idea for a loved one or for yourself.
