Designer Marcantonio continues his naturalist exploration... These troublingly realistic birds are taking over our interiors as if to remind us of the unbreakable link which exists between man and nature. An ode to nature, Sparrow lamps offer a poetic spectacle for us to enjoy: graceful birds hold in their claws, not twigs, but cables fitted with bulbs to light up our nights and perhaps our minds! As if suspended in the air, the cables seem flexible. In reality, they are flexible steel rods that can be twisted to make them adopt swirling, fluid shapes. The white resin birds are available in different positions: landing, take off, cruising. Evanescent and light, these sensitive, witty lights bring a touch of magic to our interiors. These little lamps will please both kids and grown-ups! They give off a soft mood lighting.
