Clean and simple, the Raio T Lamp looks as though it were a contemporary cage. As though meant for pets or even used as a modern basket of some sort, people will be surprised to find that it emits light instead. Yet what will truly surprise them is the size and materials used to make the Raio T Lamp.
Designed by Portuguese furniture design label Branca, the Raio T Lamp may appear to be made out of metals or even ceramics, but it's actually crafted out of wood. Available in various shapes, it can hang from the ceiling or rest on a flat surface. It's large size allows it to stand out bolding in any living space.
