The stunning Cattelan Italia Wanted floor lamp is a luxury Italian glass floor lamp which can be selected in either Verde Pavone or Ambra coloured glass, and is made using the ancient Balloton technique, typical of the craft tradition of the Venetian glass masters.
The elements of this Balloton lamp are characterised by a three-dimensional pattern of crossed rhombuses, obtained from a metal mould. The points inside the mould, following the blowing process, shape the molten glass and create the typical faceted effect of Balloton work.
This optical effect is simply spectacular and is further accentuated by the shading of the coloured glass, with the light reverberating through the ripples giving a soft, delicate effect.
To create the lamp several different lampshades are placed on top of each other, encircled by transparent rings, which seem to be holding a malleable and flexible material rather than hard crystal. Such is the grandeur of hand-worked glass that it brings gracefulness to a cold, rigid material. The light is controlled & dimmed via a foot switch. A matching Wanted table lamp can be seen in the related products.
