Product description
Rich, brilliant, manifold, the lamp Caboche is a mosaic of refractions, the perfect fusion of different individualities that together create the body and the light effect of the lamp.
The concept’s strength, confirmed also by the great commercial and media success of the suspension lamp presented at Euroluce 2005, now allows Foscarini to propose a range that has been expanded with new sizes for the suspension lamp and with the floor, table, ceiling and wall versions. Caboche thus opens to coordination possibilities and expands the range of potential uses of the model.
The diffuser consists of spheres of transparent polymetylmetacrylate ordered in the characteristic concentric layout, that multiplies the light of the central light source. A top screen in white satinized glass guarantees maximum diffusion of light towards the top, while the lower one screens off the light bulb and prevents glare.
A solid base is provided by the original design of the stem in the floor and table versions. It consists of three supports joined in the round base on the floor that recalls the round shape of the diffuser, lending coherence, originality and lightness to the whole object.
The richness and attractiveness of the first suspended version is transferred to the numerous variants of the expanded Caboche family, which are bound to become the protagonists of both home and public environments, due to their ability to combine visual impact with lightness, furnishing ability with function – such as the possibility of employing the floor versions also to separate reception, sitting and dining areas.
