About the Item

A striking study in light, reflection, and form, this large “Sconfine Sfera” pendant by Matteo Thun for Zumtobel is a perfect embodiment of the designer’s poetic minimalism. Combining technical precision with visual softness, the piece explores the boundary between light and space — “sconfine” meaning without borders in Italian. The pendant features a hand-blown glass sphere encased in a polished metal reflector, creating a layered interplay of transparency and reflection. When illuminated, the light appears to float within the globe, diffusing a warm, atmospheric glow that transforms its surroundings. Designed by Matteo Thun for Zumtobel, a brand renowned for its architectural lighting, the Sconfine Sfera unites Italian design sensitivity with Austrian engineering excellence. Its sculptural presence makes it equally suited for residential, hospitality, or gallery interiors. Details: Designer: Matteo Thun Model: Sconfine Sfera (large version) Manufacturer: Zumtobel Origin: Austria / Italy Materials: Hand-blown glass, polished metal Condition: Excellent condition; minimal wear. Fully functional. A captivating and versatile lighting piece, the Sconfine Sfera embodies Matteo Thun’s refined balance of innovation, emotion, and simplicity — a timeless statement in contemporary lighting design.
