An elegant piece of functional art handmade in Italy. Heighten your home’s refined contemporary aesthetic with the handsome Ballino Table Lamp from Ricca Design. Over a side table or a desk, the lamp’s simple beauty makes for an eye-pleasing addition. It draws you with clean shapes and a combo of colors that speaks to designer Marcello Pozzi’s appreciation of contrast. It stands firmly over your tabletop with an expressive silhouette marked by a solid base and a bent arm. A shared sleek metal finish gives these two elements a sophisticated connected look. For a pop of color, a braided fabric cord tails out the back of the arm as a high-style note. You can’t help but smile at the perfect shape volume of the frosted glass globe. This charming form works with the LEDs to give you an even glow that’s ideal for setting an ambiance or helping with tasks.
