Trottola is a new collection of suspension and table lights whose shape elicits memories of a popular childhood toy – the spinning top. The aesthetics of the design are carried on an enchanting luminance that passes through an opal diffusor and opaline glass to reveal a playful contrast of shadows and light. The LED source is housed in a base clad in pressed aluminium, which in turn is finished in an attractive black or silver anodized. Brightness and light temperature can be adjusted with a simple turn of the elegant dimmer by the table versions of the collection. Trottola offers two sizes of suspension and table lights in handblown opaline glass. The table variant is fitted with the innovative BROKIS connector, which makes it easy to disconnect the light and move it about the interior and also facilitates disassembly for maintenance and cleaning. As if by magic, the semi-transparent object comes to life with a gentle glow to reveal a fascinating playscape of shapes and shadows in the interior.
