About the Item

Brass table lamp Nitens is a handmade object part of a design collection created for contemporary Brazilian lighting brand Bertolucci. Inspired by the Brazilian technical craft of “Capim Dourado”, the scientific name of the plant, Syngonanthus Nitens, lends its name to the objects. Nitens, in Latin, means "shining". Highlighting the transformation of the raw material in the manufacture of objects, parts of burrs discarded during the spinning process of the sheet of brass in the lathe are reused and woven the same way the Capim Dourado. The traditional indigenous technique is adapted to the unique character of brass burrs, flat rounded golden threads, each has its shape and reflects light your way. These are wound by Industrial brass wires, as well as the Capim Dourado is sewn with silk Buriti. Each piece is individually made by designers, thus including the craft tradition in the manufacturing process. Three typologies have been developed: desk lamp, pendant light, and floor lamp with table. The desk lamp and the pendant light gain personality with the wire power switch of braided brass made with the very waste of each piece. The big highlight is the floor lamp with a table, with a partially woven top, approximately 200 meters from brass wire leftovers, delicate and meticulous craftwork. Every object reveals the production process through the contrast between the brushed brass reflector and the braided recycled brass wires. The indigenous know-how applied to contemporary design, a genuinely Brazilian collection.
