Babele is an hanging lamp for direct light in turned aluminium and painted externally with different shades of micaceous color, golden inside. Suspended with stell cables, produced in 3 diameters: Ø 45cm, Ø 65cm and Ø 92cm.
Designed by Marc Sadler in 2005 for Martinelli Luce, the surface of the lamp is characterized by circular ribs of different diameters arranged in almost parallel planes to describe a path: the path of man towards the infinite light and truth as opposed to the boring life. Babele has a strong personality, which attracts attention, able to fill the space.
Pendant fixture providing direct light. Babele’s shade features a spiral pattern in the shade itself along with a textured mica like finish. The shades interior has a golden finish which provides balance to the shade’s strong presence.
"Babele, like the Tower of Babel in the Bible, punished for its presumption in wanting to touch the sky, and from there, the confusion of languages that prevented people from communicating among themselves. Instead, a beautiful “bell” that seems forged by hand and that collects new forms of modern conviviality underneath it."
