Nile Table Lamp

by Rodolfo Dordoni for Foscarini

Inspired by sublime, palpable history, the Nile table lamp establishes its own remarkable identity and shines - figuratively and literally. This lamp's silhouette echoes the iconic Nefertiti bust, a beautiful piece of ancient art. However, it’s turned magnificently modern in this instance, so you can still have a sliver of bygone times in your contemporary home. An eye-catching, angled, cylindrical diffuser sits upon a marble pedestal, providing succinct light downward and upward. Work efficiently or simply admire the pleasing, warm glow it emits. On or off, it is a marvel to admire.

The makeup of this lamp is defined by the balancing act of two opposites: consistent marble and delicate glass. The diffuser is in blown glass, while the base is in matte marble, with the choice between a Carrara or Marquina finish. The Nile table lamp is designed by Rodolfo Dordoni for Foscarini and manufactured in Italy to ensure quality.
