Nothing more than a sphere, set in an apparently impossible feat of balance, upon a cone that serves as the base.‎ One of Gio Ponti’s many compositional magic tricks, designed in 1932.‎ The counterbalancing of two elementary geometric forms results in an original, perfectly proportioned object.‎ An unpretentious composition, enriched by the extraordinary balance of its proportions and the stylish discretion of non-reflective materials.‎The light is diffused and valorized by the geometrical simplicity of the design.‎ In designing Bilia, Gio Ponti imagined a smaller version in a range of “spray colours”.‎ From those handwritten notes of the original project, FontanaArte presents Bilia Mini in new breathtaking chromatic variations.‎Table lamp with diffused light not dimmable.‎ Galvanized metal frame.‎ Diffuser made of white blown glass with satin-finish.‎ Transparent power cable, plug and switch.‎ European two-pole plug.‎ Bulb not included.‎MATERIAL DESCRIPTIONglass, galvanized metalCOLOR DESCRIPTION white, glossy black, glossy copper, green, yellow, red, blue, black, brass, satin nichelGROUP TENSIONBulbENERGY CLASSA++ >> ERECOMMENDED SOURCELED 1x6W G9 (2700K, 470Lm)MADE INItalyALIMENTATION CABLETransparentDIMMERNot dimmable
