Extended (2 Years) Glass/Clear Wall Sconces

Riflesso is one of Vistosi’s most iconic lamp collections. In the latter variant the recent restyling by designers Chiaramonte & Marin allows a better diffusion of light. The three sinuous shapes of Riflesso, which are reminiscent of soap bubbles and make lightness and transparency their hallmark, now feature a dual light source. The LED is positioned at the top, where the gold or satin-finished copper structure joins the glass, and at the bottom, at the end of the second structure. Whatever the colour (crystal, pink, amber or smoked), the glass is almost invisible and becomes a simple tool for propagating light. This result is possible thanks to the experience of Vistosi’s master glassmakers who, with skill and craftsmanship, make this precious raw material visible only through the reflection of light, enhancing the concept of simplicity and lightness from which the collection’s concept originates. In Riflesso, therefore, glass becomes light, functionality merges with design, and the ultimate purpose of a lamp is never lost sight of: to illuminate, but at the same time to furnish the environment harmoniously. Hence the careful study of dimensions, which allow Riflesso to adapt to different needs, spaces and contexts, from homes to offices. The double LED source and the greater light diffusion allow the lamp to be used individually even in more spacious environments.

Unpredictable beauty. Light and glass work together to create unimaginable results. When the glass cools, a unique, almost fingerprint-like pattern is revealed, producing a mesmerizing sunburst effect on the wall when the light is on. The Inviso sconce from Cerno uses a palette of familiar wood, metal, and glass with a form that blurs the lines between art and utility.

“Looking to the past to design the present with ideas that look to the future”: this is the design philosophy of architect Francesco Lucchese, who designed the Armonia collection for Vistosi, which was awarded the honourable mention of the Compasso D’Oro in 2020. When designing, Lucchese allows himself be inspired by history to identify future trends and needs, in seeking to bring out the maximum functionality of each object and offer new emotion. Colour also has great importance in his creative process, as shown by the Armonia chandeliers and wall lights, which combine warm and cold colours (crystal and amber, smoke and amber) or the extreme transparency of pure crystal cylinders, with two different metal finishes of the external ring that surrounds them: satin black nickel and internal satin brass or copper. It creates plays on circumferences that create infinite circles. The Armonia collection is enhanced with a new large-sized chandelier, a sublime example of Vistosi’s artisanal know-how, and four new appliques with a frame without a metal ring, which highlights the cylinders in crystal with different colours and processing techniques (E14 light). The historical reference is found in the techniques used for processing the glass: the balloton, which gives the glass surface a particular crossed relief that creates a special optical effect, the “rigadin”, the traditional striped design, both straight and twisted, which in the past decorated the surfaces of Murano glass furnishings to obtain interesting refractions of light, and the new elongated diamond pattern. The combination of colours and the technical details make the light diffused by Armonia truly enveloping, both in its suspension and wall versions.

Light in motion. That is the sensation pervading the environment when a Diadema is switched on. Combining rods of different sizes, the light is reflected and conveys the desired dynamism. Several variants and possibilities for customization are available. Crystal glass shade. Metal parts finishing in satin bronze and chrome.

Glassmaking is an ancient art that tells of centuries-old knowledge, handed down from generation to generation by the love and passion of expert craftsmen who carefully hold a tradition of excellence. True icons of timeless beauty are born when know-how and craftsmanship meet design, to form a perfect synthesis of tradition and innovation. This is the case of the Giogali and Minigiogali collections designed by Angelo Mangiarotti in 1967 for Vistosi, the lighting brand that has brought glass to perfection. The Giogali lamp (Compasso d’Oro mention in 1969) introduced a new concept in the use of glass: a modular lighting system based on a single hand-crafted crystal element (a type of hook) that can be repeated indefinitely to give life to structures that appear like cascades of light. The hook is the basic module that constitutes the entire architecture of the Giogali system (name that derives from the Venetian “giongher”, or the strap used in the countryside to tie the cart to the yoke), Mangiarotti’s modern interpretation of the Venetian chandelier. Long-term research based on the innovation of traditional shapes generated the hook, which thus becomes the constructive element of the chandelier itself. The basic element can be hooked in a series to form crystal chains, which in turn can be combined to create unlimited formal designs, such as chandeliers of any size that become scenographic backdrop of rooms. Following a restyling of the product, Vistosi introduced the Giogali 3D version in 2005: a new type of hook in glass that allows it to be paired to rings in all four directions, so as to form a continuous mesh that allows great installation flexibility.

The Puppet collection by Vistosi expresses passion and artisan know-how. The undisputed protagonist is blown glass, irregularly striped, an ancient manufacturing technique, known since the Romans and then also used for the processing of Murano glass. Here, from the breath of master glassmakers, new, magical shapes come to life. For Puppet, the Romani Saccani Architetti Associati studio, already designer of the Diadema collection, chose the sphere, a symbol of perfection and union, a movement that has no beginning or end, and therefore immutable over time, just like the Puppet collection, which since its conception has become an icon of the Vistosi catalogue. Moreover, the expressive research of Romani Saccani Architetti Associati is aimed at defining a strong, identifying, but conceptually simple, and therefore easily understandable sign. The result is a collection with a pure, immediate design, free of unnecessary frills. Puppet is available as a pendant lamp, wall lamp and table lamp. The suspension version includes spheres of three different sizes, and is available in different variants such as linear versions, those with a round rosette or in the chandelier. The latter allows you to fix the diffusers to the ceiling with steel cables as desired, creating ever-changing games with the fabric electric cables that recall the strings that moved ancient puppets. The diffusers are available in four glass finishes (shaded white, transparent crystal, transparent smoke, transparent amber) with the possibility of mixing them together. The metal frame can be in polished chrome finish with gray fabric electrical cable or matt black with black fabric electrical cable. The Puppet Ring collection, born in 2019, plays with spheres of different sizes, differentiating itself from the “classic” version by using a frame composed of rings of different sizes, single or combined, which form the base on which the precious glass spheres rest, which blend with the structure thanks to a pre-forming inside the blown glass. In addition to the three existing suspensions, three new configurations are added which, due to their large dimensions, are particularly suitable for large spaces. In the wall light, a ring supports a larger sphere, oriented towards the ceiling, and a smaller one facing the floor. Light and elegant, Puppet Ring ethereally combines crystal, smoked, amber and shaded white glass with gold and satin black nickel finishes.

Collection with a minimalist and discreet design that enhances the light source, thanks to the translucent glass band trapped between the layers of crystal.

One ring, infinite combinations. The concept of the Ecos collection is just in one element: the glass ring. Extremely customizable in terms of shapes and sizes, for a truly original lighting. Rigadin white or crystal colour glass. Metal parts finishing in satin bronze and chrome.

Tread, Vistosi’s collection of lamps with a vintage soul and industrial style, is enriched with a new diffuser for the suspended version, again designed by the creative duo Chiaramonte & Marin. If the previous diffuser was reminiscent of an old oil lamp, taking us back to the Sixties, the new one does not lose its vintage inspiration, but is transformed and changes style: the blown glass with its characteristic lateral grooves, from which the name of the collection itself derives (from the English word thread), disappears and makes way for a smooth glass, with a decidedly larger diameter and whose shape recalls that of a suction cup. A new solution that makes it possible to illuminate small living areas even with just one element, containing costs, but without giving up a precious glass and a design element, able to characterise and enhance the environment in which it is inserted. Whatever the colour of the glass, the colour of the light does not change because the base of the diffuser is open; the different shades only influence the intensity of the illumination, making it more or less warm.

A collection of lamps made from a single piece of blown glass, whose particular workmanship, though, allows a double chromatic effect: transparent at the top, satin effect at the bottom.

In the applique, a ring supports a larger sphere facing the ceiling and a smaller one facing the floor.

Drop 1-Light Armed Sconce is made of borosilicate glass, finer and more delicate than blown glass. The choice of glass is intimately related to the light that creates. The light source is an LED that is hidden so that light is the only protagonist. Then, when the light is projected and reflected in the materials that are found along the way, it creates a set of sparkles and shadows. All that, enrich the object. " Its light is intimate, but it also has a practical utility for those who are nearby. The Drop 1-Light Armed Sconce is intended for application in both residential and contract projects. Thanks to its multiple applications it works very well in all hotel spaces, in public areas as well as in rooms.
