DIESEL FOSCARINI - FORK FLOOR

DIESEL FOSCARINI - FORK FLOOR

The Fork lampshade is a steel fork with a diffuser inspired by casual fashion and an informal, playful lifestyle. The light inside the diffuser illuminates its patchwork structure, the texture of the canvas and its jeans-style visible stitching creating an effect which is rather like switching on a light inside a tent. Nothing in Fork is left to chance. Its rings are not merely decorative but respond to practical needs with simplicity and immediacy. Its ivory or grey diffuser – made of linen treated with a special process that gives it a vintage appearance – can be combined with an ivory or brown metal mount for a total of four different colour combinations. Versatile and extremely flexible, its adjustment range is 360°. The structure joints in the floor and table versions also make it highly mobile. This means you can change the direction of the light as you please and have fun with the lamp, playing around with its infinite range of combinations. All of Fork’s dynamism is there in the suspension versions, which are available in two sizes, and in the wall version too.

DESCRIPTION

Floor lamp with diffused and direct light. The outline of the matt satin finish polycarbonate diffuser is covered with pure linen fabric, with a purposely-uneven weft and warp of the fabric achieved by hand. The fabric is stained and undergoes anti-fray treatment; it is then cut into pieces and tailored by hand using a sewing machine with visible seams. The brass eyelets are galvanised in gun barrel colour. A special locking and sliding system positions the diffuser along the rod; a hand-welded painted steel fork houses the linear halogen light bulb, allowing the diffuser to turn freely through 360° along its axis. The rod and base are made of powder-coated steel, while the joints on the rod are painted black for the ivory version and brown for the brown version. These joints make it possible to bend the rod in two places, at the base and in the middle, allowing users to shape the lamp to their liking. Silk-screen printed matt Diesel logo at the base of the rod; the electrical cable and dimmer are transparent.
