Bolle is a bubble lamp that looks as though it might pop at any given moment. Yet it is the ephemeral quality that gives it its charm. Suspended from the ceiling in a way that makes it appear to be floating in midair, the bubble lamp is perfect for contemporary homes that want a touch of whimsy.
Designed by Giopato & Coombes, the bubble lamp was recently presented at Designersblock during the London Design Festival. Made out of hand blown glass, the bubble lamp is an airy and ethereal creation. Cristiana Giopato says, "For us the lightness of the soap bubbles has become a metaphor for the immateriality of light." The bubble lamp is available in two sizes to accommodate different spaces.
