Slump
by TOM DIXON
One off creation produced as prototypes for “Spirit of Resurgence” exhibition, Venice Glass Week 2020. Prototypes limited in number, product rollout under review.
WonderGlass’ Slump table lamp is a triumph of texture richness on a bespoke Carrara marble base. The mould has been specifically manufactured to bend the matter into a curved single glass fit. This right shape allows the light rays to filter through armoniously and concentrate the brightness at the front tip. A well distributed glow sparks through the object thanks to the smooth texture, generating an elegant and cohesive effect.
