Sparkler Lamp
Boundless Living: outdoor furniture at Poltrona
Frau is embodied in this concept, expressed in a series of outdoor collections
that combine the design, craftsmanship and flair so typical of Made in Italy.
For an outdoor living space that blurs the boundary between indoors and
outdoors and transcends the distinction between outdoor and indoor furnishings.
Living without boundaries is all about
imagining new lifestyles and customising the choices for furnishing gardens,
balconies, rooftops, winter gardens, terraces and poolside areas, right through
to yacht and ship decks. Thanks to its versatile furnishings and wide-ranging
accessories, Poltrona Frau is able to interpret a lifestyle without boundaries
between indoors and outdoors, between private and working life, personal and
collective spaces, contract, residential and even nautical settings. Poltrona
Frau's outdoor furnishing solutions adapt to any outdoor context, with a
comprehensive collection for the living room area, lunch area and relaxation
area in the garden or at the poolside.
Technology, design and craftsmanship. Sparkler
outdoor lamps create an enchanting atmosphere through light sculptures that
decorate outdoor spaces of all kinds. Available in three sizes: the large floor
lantern, the medium floor lantern and the small table lantern, they are made
from a lacquered powder-coated aluminium frame on which a 0.5 mm polypropylene
rope is hand-woven. The small lamp can be converted into a floor lamp by means
of the arch support, or into an outdoor ceiling lamp by means of the hook and
woven rope. The luminaire is a LED with an 8W lithium battery, rechargeable via
USB cable. Designed by Kensaku Oshiro, the Sparklers belong to the Boundless
Living Outdoor Collections at Poltrona Frau.
