Upglas lamp by Luca Nichetto for Astep

Dezeen Showroom: designer Luca Nichetto used recycled remnants of Murano glass to create the Upglas table lamp for Danish lighting brand Astep.

The qualities of glass, clay and marble mix in the novel surface of the Upglas lamp, which is made by crushing discarded fragments of colourful mounth-blown glass from the legendary Italian glass-making island of Murano, where Nichetto was born.
