Minerva Red Desk-Companion

Les First - Light of the Gods Since 2015, Les First reinvents myth in a flow of energy, art and imagination – a new luminous pantheon. These light sculptures show a strong and flexible personality, made to stand out against both antique and minimal settings, while enticing the senses and paying homage to millennia of beauty. Les First creates luxury table lamps, made in Italy between the Lombardy and Veneto areas, in collaboration with local companies. Les First’s sculpture lamps boast a distinctive design, uniquely matching traditional ceramic craft from the potteries of the Venetian area with technological innovation. The lamps draw their inspiration from the mythological subjects in the frescoes that Renaissance artist Giulio Romano painted in the halls of Palazzo Te for the Gonzaga lords of Mantua. Each piece consists of a ceramic sculpture topped by a laser-engraved cylindrical Plexiglas panel, fitted with a LED light source. A dedicated software operates the panel, turning the sculpture into a dimmable touch lamp, that can be switched on and off and adjusted by a light touch to the ceramic base, without a traditional on/off switch. The finest materials and skillful handcraft guarantee the highest quality, together with the uniqueness of artisanal production. ** All Les First lamps are CE certified.
