0024 LARGE
fontanaarte > Floor lamp
A series of horizontal discs in clear tempered glass for a true light installation. Available in floor and suspension versions, also in an XXL size with triple the diameter of the classic lamp, reaching 150 cm. Its jumbo personality brings timeless elegance to even the largest of interiors.
THOR
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Small table lamp with a simple and at the same time eccentric design. It is perfect for enhancing corners of the house and furnishing accessories.
EQUATORE MEDIUM
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Equatore is a contemporary reinterpretation of the classic lamp with a glass shade. While the traditional abat-jour uses the shade to contain the light source within, in this family of lamps the shade is paradoxically and suggestively empty, with the light being generated by two luminous discs placed inside a central metal band, visible on the shade, that evokes the line of the equator. The light produced by the Leds, thanks to internal screens arranged in layers, is distributed regularly across the surface of the discs, magically illuminating them. The bottom disc directs the light output downward, the upper one illuminates the glass cap for a soft, diffused light. Available in table, floor and ceiling models, in two sizes and two colors: a cooler version in gray with a dark chrome frame, and a warmer version with a transparent dove gray cap and a copper-colored frame.
PAROLA
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
Designed by Gae Aulenti and Piero Castiglioni in 1980, the Parola lamp features three different kinds of glass working processes: blown glass, natural glass and natural crystal. It is an exemplary model of technical integration between artisan and industrial skills.
PALLINA SMALL
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
The perfection of glass and sphere to create the most essential object of the collection. A must-have for every space of the house, inspired by the Italian theatre and Broadway musicals from 40’s and 50’s. Simplicity and seriality. Pallina. One, no one, one hundred thousand.
BLOM
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Blom is a small table lamp by Andreas Engesvik, a Norwegian designer who has made a name for himself on the international scene thanks to his ability to instil emotions, appeal and ideas into everyday objects. Taking up very little space, just 24 cm tall with a diameter of 15 cm, Blom is a light, fun lamp that is easy to pick up and move and suitable for any purpose. Its name, a contraction of the word blomst, which in Norwegian means flower, is inspired by its petal shaped blades. Intensity can be adjusted thanks to the two petals that gently embrace the diffuser, rotating on the base to shield the glare depending on personal requirements: with the petals aligned the lamp emits maximum light. The compact fluorescent bulb guarantees good effective lighting with low energy consumption. The metal base ensures stability for the lamp and when lit, the polycarbonate petals maintain a temperature that permits touching without the risk of burns. Blom is an article that adapts perfectly to contemporary living trends, at home on a table in the lounge or even by a bedside.
PRIMA SIGNORA
fontanaarte > Floor lamp
A magnificent globe in white blown glass crowns the chrome-plated tripod. The surprising arrangement of these understated lines produces a very well-balanced result.
TROPICO GRANDE
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
The "shape of light" is the central theme of this project by Gabriele and Oscar Buratti, which began with the Equatore family of lamps, presented in 2017 and now expanded to include other finishes, and continues with the new Meridiano and Tropico. Forms of glass and metal that collect, contain and diffuse light in space. Passing between opaline, coloured and transparent layers, emphasised by the refined curves and the magic of blown glass, the light is free to create surprising and fascinating effects, patterns and moods. Tropico is a spherical cap of opaque opaline glass, flattened and fixed by a large mirrored metal boss. The family comprises wall/ceiling and table versions, both available in three different sizes.
FALENA
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
Lightness and elegance for this family of lamps designed by Alvaro Siza and available in floor, table and wall versions. Adjustable body and diffuser wings for complete management of light.

CARTOCCIO
fontanaarte > Styling
Extraordinary vases designed by Pietro Chiesa in 1932, whose manual production makes each one unique.
YUMI
fontanaarte > Floor lamp
Yumi means bow in Japanese. Today, this simple shape is re-interpreted by Shigeru Ban for FontanaArte. Its absolute harmony is destined to turn into a new universal classic. Yumi is both delicate and strong: an essential sign that meets a resistant and light structure. 170 LEDs are discreetly sunk into the structure of the lamp minimising the use of space and further enhancing the continuous line of the bow design. Choosing materials that are resistant to high temperatures made it possible to sink the wiring entirely inside the stem during the production process. Yumi spreads a warm downward glow which is ideal forcreating an intimate atmosphere. It adds character to different interiors with its distinct but subtle personality.
TROPICO MEDIA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
The "shape of light" is the central theme of this project by Gabriele and Oscar Buratti, which began with the Equatore family of lamps, presented in 2017 and now expanded to include other finishes, and continues with the new Meridiano and Tropico. Forms of glass and metal that collect, contain and diffuse light in space. Passing between opaline, coloured and transparent layers, emphasised by the refined curves and the magic of blown glass, the light is free to create surprising and fascinating effects, patterns and moods. Tropico is a spherical cap of opaque opaline glass, flattened and fixed by a large mirrored metal boss. The family comprises wall/ceiling and table versions, both available in three different sizes.
GALERIE LARGE
fontanaarte > Floor lamp
The distinguishing feature of Galerie is the diffuser, which is inspired by both aesthetically and functionally by the antique oil lamps of the Belle Époque. Hand-blown in four layers of glass, where the outer and the inner layers are of two different colors, it reads as white when turned off, then as amber once lit. It is also equipped with a leather strap that allows the fixture to be hung in different positions on the structure. In the floor version, the lamp is available for two uses: a reading lamp with one diffuser, to create the ideal atmosphere for reading, and a floor lamp with three diffusers positioned at different heights, for adjustable ambient lighting. The family also includes a wall version. The combination of materials (glass, leather, metal and marble), unprecedented in a lamp, makes the Galerie family particularly rich, and at the same time elegant and balanced. Galerie expresses the memory of days gone by in a contemporary key.
SCINTILLA MEDIUM
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
The absolutely novel Scintilla system combines the essential versatility of a decorative lamp and a lighting capacity comparable to a technical system. The great success of this system persuaded the company to design a free-standing version in the early eighties, with the main structure fastened to the base and stem in metal.
VOLÉE SMALL
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Volée is a Led luminaire of the latest generation, in which the formal research is combined with technological innovation. Featured by an essential design, Volée switches on with an almost tennis-style gesture: a simple wave of the hand under the head of this lamp activates an electronic device that switches the light on or off without any contact. A touch sensor over the head allows the flow of light to be regulated to four different levels of intensity (40%, 60%, 100%, 0%). A Time Out system automatically switches the lamp off after it has been on for 5 hours. The tension for the hidden-spring balancing mechanisms is provided by steel wires that allow to orientate the light emission with a fluid movement. Volée is suitable for every kind of environment, both modern and traditional.
GLOBO DI LUCE LARGE
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
Blown glass, in chrome and metallic copper finishes, enhances the spherical lampshades of this family, available in a table version and three different sized suspension versions.
LUNAIRE
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
Lunaire is a wall and ceiling lamp with a surprising light effect, reminiscent of the phenomenon produced by eclipses. A smaller front disc containingthe light source is set inside a large concave aluminium diffuser.Two different effects are possible depending on how the small discis positioned with respect to the diffuser: back lighting when the front disc is closed, in other words pushed towards the wall, or from insidethe diffuser when the disc is pulled forward. Simply pulling or pushing the rod on the front of the disc immediately changes the lightingeffect to suit the mood. Thanks to the large diameter of the diffuser, Lunaire is the perfect lighting solution for big areas,they residential or contract.
THEA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Table, floor, wall, ceiling and pendant, THEA is a family of lamps that covers all types of applications, designed for use both in the domestic environment of the home and in the more public and contract spaces of the hotel, restaurant and work sectors.

THOR

BILIA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Nothing more than a sphere, set in an apparently impossible feat of balance, upon a cone that serves as the base. One of Gio Ponti’s many compositional magic tricks, designed in 1932. The counterbalancing of two elementary geometric forms results in an original, perfectly proportioned object. An unpretentious composition, enriched by the extraordinary balance of its proportions and the stylish discretion of non-reflective materials.The light is diffused and valorized by the geometrical simplicity of the design. In designing Bilia, Gio Ponti imagined a smaller version in a range of “spray colours”. From those handwritten notes of the original project, FontanaArte presents Bilia Mini in new breathtaking chromatic variations.
FALENA
fontanaarte > Floor lamp
Lightness and elegance for this family of lamps designed by Alvaro Siza and available in floor, table and wall versions. Adjustable body and diffuser wings for complete management of light.
BIANCA SMALL
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Bianca is a family of luminaires with the decoration on the diffuser surface features an orderly series of shallow delicate grooves etched into the white glass, yielding an effect resembling small footprints on fresh snow. Mouth blown, belt sanded and dipped in acid to obtain the distinctive 'silk effect' typical of fine glassware, Bianca diffusers are available in three different diameters to complete all thirteen types of luminaires belonging to the family. The largest diffuser has a 50 cm diameter and, owing to its dimensions and the amount of glass involved, continues to pose a considerable challenge even for the ablest of glassbbottoms trained in the fixed-mould blowing technique, which – according to the traditional Venetian production process – is performed without any external aids for turning and shaping the glass blob inside the mould, but relies solely on the glassbbottom's skill and lung capacity. Bianca is available in the following versions: table-top without stem, floor-standing with base and stem, pendant, wall-mounted and ceiling-mounted. The matt white coating applied to the various metal supports evokes the name and colour of the diffuser. Bianca produces a very warm, diffused and enveloping light emission in the surrounding environment.
BIS - TRIS
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Designed in 1954, the Bis and Tris table lamps maintain their classic yet contemporary shape intact. Designed for a refined home environment, they also find their perfect location on a work table or on an elegant console.
FONTANELLA LARGE
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
Two materials: metal and glass, as in the historic tradition of FontanaArte. The metal acts as a base and contains the light source while the glass, the true protagonist of the project, is expertly worked by skilled craftsmen in a process of fusion between a portion of transparent glass and a satin one from which the light diffuses. Fontanella is formed by the union of two glasses: the internal tube is threaded, sandblasted and finally joined with the bubble-shaped blown glass. What makes the processing particularly refined is the manual joining of the two parts, which requires the skillful technique of a craftsman. Furthermore, the glass, which has always been the material par excellence of the FontanaArte product, is the most crystalline on the market. The use of light bulbs, dimmable and not dimmable, for the biggest energy saving, complete the contemporaneity of this FontanaArte piece.
MANO
fontanaarte > Table lamp
An ironic and elegant lamp designed by Pietro Chiesa in 1932, the year in which he began his project of artistic direction in FontanaArte, shared with Gio Ponti. Pioneer of irony and originality for those times, Mano is still among the most sought after pieces by design enthusiasts all over the world.
SERPENTINE
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
A luminous wave floating in space and bringing life to unprecedented lighting effects. 364 Leds in the underside of the lamp guarantee a surprising result in terms of light and movemen.
UOVO LARGE
fontanaarte > Table lamp
A natural form and timeless symbol of perfection, in which symmetry and asymmetry harmoniously coexist. Designed in 1972, the ‘shell’ of the egg contained a light source: an ironic idea that still works today. As in nature, the shell of the Uovo lamp is the embodiment of absolute lightness, an elegant form in white satin blown glass that gives off a warm, uniform light. Available in three sizes, it has all the versatility of a collection designed for multiple uses: from the small version which serves as a tiny utility lamp to the large version, a veritable light sculpture, protagonist of any space.
TESO TABLE
fontanaarte > Side table
Renzo Piano made his design debut with a coordinated line of furnishing systems for FontanaArte, using only one material: glass, symbol of the company’s production history. A very fine collection that comprises table, bookcase and console.
EQUATORE MEDIUM

Equatore is a contemporary reinterpretation of the classic lamp with a glass shade. While the traditional abat-jour uses the shade to contain the light source within, in this family of lamps the shade is paradoxically and suggestively empty, with the light being generated by two luminous discs placed inside a central metal band, visible on the shade, that evokes the line of the equator. The light produced by the Leds, thanks to internal screens arranged in layers, is distributed regularly across the surface of the discs, magically illuminating them. The bottom disc directs the light output downward, the upper one illuminates the glass cap for a soft, diffused light. Available in table, floor and ceiling models, in two sizes and two colors: a cooler version in gray with a dark chrome frame, and a warmer version with a transparent dove gray cap and a copper-colored frame.
RIGA LARGE
fontanaarte > Wall lamp
Wall lamp with linear essential design, comprising a structure in metal and diffusers in sandblasted tempered glass. Downlighting and uplighting.
OORT
fontanaarte > Table lamp
The OORT system is composed of tubular elements made of borosilicate glass. Inside them are flexible LED light tubes of the latest generation, easily replaceable, with perfectly uniform 360° light emission and certified also for outdoor use. The borosilicate glass is ribbed on the inside, a feature that enhances the light by making it warm and welcoming, brings out the effect of light and shadow, and allows easy cleaning of the smooth outer surface. The light is diffuse, dimmable and available at 3000K (1900Lm/m) or Dim To Warm which allows to change the colour temperature, by dimming, from minumum 1800K to 4000K at maximum intensity. The flux is dimmer-dependent to a maximum of approx 1000Lm/m. The product can be supplied at 2700K on request.
SCINTILLA MEDIUM

The absolutely novel Scintilla system combines the essential versatility of a decorative lamp and a lighting capacity comparable to a technical system. The great success of this system persuaded the company to design a free-standing version in the early eighties, with the main structure fastened to the base and stem in metal.
PINECONE MEDIUM
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
Pinecone is a suspension and table lamp. The diffuser is manufactured using the ancient caged blown glass technique: the glass maker blows the molten glass blob into a metal cage, which only partly contains the blob's natural expansion. In this way, the glass surface is partly trapped by and partly escapes the cage, generating an impression of tension as the object struggles to free itself from its harness; the cage is further enriched by the galvanic treatment that makes it look glossy and brilliant. The transparent version, in particular, reveals a two-fold structure that multiplies the scenic effect, while the metal cage pattern projects kaleidoscopic shade effects on the surrounding surfaces. On the contrary, in the white version the glass delicately envelops the cage surface and enhances its geometric pattern, generating an elegant and visually pleasing diffused light. The lighting fixture makes a highly appealing and striking impact either switched on or off.
MERIDIANO
fontanaarte > Table lamp
The "shape of light" is the central theme of this project by Gabriele and Oscar Buratti, which began with the Equatore family of lamps, presented in 2017 and now expanded to include other finishes, and continues with the new Meridiano and Tropico. Forms of glass and metal that collect, contain and diffuse light in space. Passing between opaline, coloured and transparent layers, emphasised by the refined curves and the magic of blown glass, the light is free to create surprising and fascinating effects, patterns and moods. In the new Meridiano lamp, the vertical cylindrical tube contains and diffuses the light in the transparent glass capsule, which defines its refined ovoid shape. Available in two sizes, Meridiano is available as a medium-size and large suspended lamp, to be used individually or in multiples arranged in groups. The table version is offered in the medium size.
GLOBO DI LUCE SMALL
fontanaarte > Ceiling lamp
Blown glass, in chrome and metallic copper finishes, enhances the spherical lampshades of this family, available in a table version and three different sized suspension versions.
SILLABA SMALL
