About the Item

La Bolla is a stunning wall or ceiling light designed by Italian designer Elio Martinelli for Martinelli Luce in the 1960s. The name "La Bolla" means "the bubble" in Italian, and the design is inspired by the shape of soap bubbles. The light is made from a single piece of white acrylic, which has been heated and molded into its distinctive spherical shape. The material is lightweight and durable, and it creates a diffused light that is warm and inviting. La Bolla has become an icon of Italian design, and it is included in the permanent collections of several museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Overall, La Bolla is a timeless piece of design that combines elegance, simplicity, and functionality. Whether used as a statement piece in a modern interior or as a subtle addition to a more traditional space, it is sure to create a beautiful and inviting atmosphere.
