This contemporary luminaire series, rooted in a long-standing design tradition, seamlessly integrates modern lighting technology with timeless aesthetics. Each piece features satin matt, hand-blown opal glass—an opaque yet highly translucent material that ensures soft, uniform light distribution across large surfaces. The generous glass surface area further enhances this diffusion effect, resulting in a lighting experience that is both elegant and effective. These luminaires are reliable lighting tools, engineered to perform consistently over extended operating periods.
The luminaires are available with two different lighting technologies to suit varied project needs. One option includes integrated LED modules with advanced features such as DALI controllability, a high color rendering index (CRI > 90), and a choice of LED color temperatures—3000 K for warm white or 4000 K for neutral white illumination. These versions are also backed by a 20-year availability guarantee for replacement parts and LED modules, reinforcing their long-term value and dependability.
Alternatively, the luminaires can be supplied with an E27 socket and matching LED lamps. This version provides a slightly lower CRI (>80) and offers the choice of 2700 K or 3000 K color temperatures, allowing for more traditional lamp replacement flexibility while maintaining high visual comfort.
Each luminaire includes a durable metal housing and canopy, with special suspension lengths available on request to accommodate various ceiling heights and installation conditions. For environments where glass cannot be used—such as areas with heightened safety requirements—models with a diameter of 250 mm or greater can be ordered with translucent, impact-resistant synthetic diffusers by simply adding a “P” to the article number. This added versatility ensures the collection remains suitable for a broad range of applications without compromising design integrity.
