24 Karat Blau M Hanging lamp

Metal, gold leaf sealed in plastic. The shades have four holes each, with which they can be suspended on the rods in various angles. The shades for 24 Karat Blau are made individually by hand. The gold leaf on the shades is beaten to a thickness of 1/10.000 mm, corresponding to 1.000 atomic layers. This allows short-wave blue light to pass through the molecules, with a warm yellow-gold light reflected inside the shades.
