Xi Floor Lamp

Xi Floor Lamp

DESIGNED BY Neri & Hu
FOR Poltrona Frau

The Xi lamps, in blown glass and saddle-leather, allow themselves to be cradled by the space like lanterns. The light fitting combines two blown glass elements. The outer layer of glass, with its particular regular ridged surface, is transparent and comes in amber, emerald, sapphire or moonstone. The inner piece of glass, white with a pearl finish, makes the light warm and diffused.

The floor arm lamp consists of a single extra large pendant lamp. The supporting bar is in brushed burnished steel. The Cuoio Saddle Extra leather strap to which the light fitting is hooked continues down to the base, covering the bottom part of the steel mount. The bottom consists of a circular base in semi-polished Nero Marquina marble topped with a metal counterpoise. The marble base has a sheet metal trim. All metal details of the base have a brushed burnished finish.

INFO

In Chinese Xi means "light of dawn", but also "in praise of wisdom". And when the lamps designed by Neri & Hu are illuminated, their soft, full light evokes the early morning sunlight.
