Fragile
Marset | Jaume Ramírez
Fascinated by timeless design, designer Jaume Ramírez is interested in the archetypal table lamp in which a lampshade distributes light in all directions. This is the starting point from which he reflects and experiments to propose a new glass design, with more streamlined shapes.
In its form, we find remnants of the past; in the material, we find emotion. The glass not only reveals the light source; it also speaks of purity, lightness, and how this design blends in with its surroundings. Its structure seems to stand effortlessly, a very serious feat in which everything is in plain sight. The cylinder shades its warm, diffused, and gradual light.

Brand
Marset
Marset was established in 1942 as a family business, not making lighting, but as a foundry. That foundation in casting metals did eventually segue into lighting design, however, with Francisco Marset formally establishing Marset Illuminacion in 1965.
The decades spent experimenting with and molding metal translated well into the contemporary lighting industry: manipulating all kinds of materials to create unexpected, atmospheric lighting effects.
