Description
A pop and sculptural lamp, Néotenic is one born of the collaboration between Petite Friture and design studio Jumbo. Its round, generous shapes allude to the reassuring aesthetics of childhood. The designers’ intention for the Néotenic lamp was to arouse emotion and create a carnal link between man and object. Morello cherry, vermilion and vanilla colours, a signature of the Petite Friture universe, suggest the regressive image of aubergine and tomato sauce.The Neotenic lamp is made by artisan ceramists in Portugal. The body requires a complex mould to achieve this rounded shape, particularly for the large model, which requires a six-part mould, meticulous hand-finishing of the ceramic before firing, drying against gravity and painting, either glossy and smooth or matt and powdered, applied in a single gesture. A true feat of craftsmanship and technique, defying the laws of physics. The quality of the light is pleasant, even and powerful, thanks to an integrated LED module developed specially for the collection. Available in two formats, the Neotenic lamp brings a touch of vitamin to a living room or bedroom.
