Golden Yellow Caboche

Foscarini offers a creation that cannot merely be defined an addition to the range, but is a project with its own personality that makes it totally different from the previous transparent version. The warmth of the new colour lights up the transparency of the material – polymethylmethacrylate – creating a lamp that is even richer and more splendid and accentuating its decorative ability. Encouraged by the commercial and media success of Caboche lamp, Foscarini is ready to focus on the collection once again, with a light centred on the colour of the sphere, now a golden yellow. The brilliancy and transparency typical of the range remain unaltered, thanks to a perfectly calibrated chromatic density. The basic structure of the ring form, on which the spheres are anchored and the upper and lower screens in white satinised glass that govern the light source also remain unaltered. Unlike the transparent version with its understated richness, Caboche Golden Yellow will satisfy the transversal taste of those who love sophisticated, evident luxury. Since 2005, the year which saw the debut of Caboche in its hanging version, followed in 2006 by the floor, table, wall and ceiling versions, Foscarini has produced millions of brilliant spheres. Patricia Urquiola’s idea, inspired by a bracelet and transformed into a rich and multi-faceted lamp, immediately revealed the innovative aspect that is the basis of every successful project: a precious form and a perfect fusion of different individuality that together create the body and the luminous effect of the lamp. Light becomes the protagonist, thanks to the crown of spheres in which every single one produces a completely different image. Design by Patricia Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto.
