Misterio Luminaires

Misterio

Misterio is a lighting collection of pendant lamps and wall lamps inspired by the northern lights. The main elements are made of cast glass with a multicolor effect and are shaped like waves frozen in glass. The glass creates colored highlights that form organic patterns on nearby surfaces. A black metal base in the form of a ring holds an LED strip covered with a matte diffuser. The ring is directed inward, so the lighting is soft and the beauty of the glass is emphasized. The collection can be used for main lighting, task lighting or accent lighting.
