Lotus Table Lamp

The Lotus Table Lamp, designed by Carlo Nason in 1969 and reintroduced by GUBI after more than 50 years out of production, is an extraordinary example of Italian glassmaking artistry. Inspired by the delicate layers of a lotus flower, the design combines sculptural beauty with an innovative approach to light and material.

Handcrafted in Murano, Italy, the lamp consists of four nested layers of mouth blown glass, each created using the traditional pulegoso technique. This process gives the glass a distinctive, subtly textured appearance with natural variations in thickness, curvature and transparency, making every lamp unique.

The carefully layered glass conceals the light source and gently diffuses its glow, creating a soft and atmospheric illumination. Its generous proportions and organic silhouette give the Lotus a striking sculptural presence, allowing it to function as both a decorative object and a source of ambient light.

A timeless expression of Carlo Nason’s experimental vision, the Lotus Table Lamp brings together traditional Murano craftsmanship, artistic expression and contemporary elegance.
