Forming a chain of sculptural discs, the Othello table lamp offers a unique take on the use of a circular shape in design. Viola follows a production method often used by Diego Giacometti as she builds the Othello in plaster, then casts it in a durable and light resin, before finishing it by hand to achieve the perfect plaster feel. This rough texture plays with light and creates a captivating presence, complimented by a Low Hat shade.

For over 30 years Porta Romana collections, hallmarked by the same values of artistic integrity and staggering craftsmanship, have travelled to the most exciting and interesting parts of the world. Passing through the heather toned highlands of Caledonia, they have emerged into the vivid greens of an Enchanted Forest. They have moved back through time to an Elemental era, and the age of Primitivism, and broken out of our universe and into the infinity of the Cosmos. They have given us Stillness.
The palette is a mixture of richness in both colour and pattern, balanced by the almost monastic simplicity of white plasterwork. In materials ranging from hand-glazed ceramic, wrapped cane and woven wicker, forged, sculpted and patinated metal, every detail of proportion, scale and finish has been considered to produce works of art, destined for the world’s most beautiful interiors.
