About the Collection Foscarini Nile


Since summer 2022, the Nile table lamp designed by Rodolfo Dordoni has been included in Foscarini's portfolio. Nile is a lighting sculpture with an impressive visual effect.

The core of Nile's design lies in the materials' harmonious contrast and in the playful use of weights and positions of the light elements. The designer Rodolfo Dordoni wanted to create a table lamp with a sculptural presence and designed two intersecting volumes: a small base of marble and a larger diffuser of blown glass. The shade is mounted in an oblique position on the also slightly obliquely standing base. It is reminiscent of the famous bust of Nefertiti, ancient queen of Egypt, which explains why Dordoni named the light fixture Nile.

The light base of marble lends Nile at the same time a stable stand and an unparalleled value. The marble is polished to a high shine and finally gets a handcrafted matt surface. It is available in two versions: whether in white Carrara marble or in black Marquina marble. The marble of both versions features irregular, natural veins which emphasize the natural material's unique character. Beside the solid marble, the delicate, breakable shade is made of blown glass, opened on top and below. It has a shiny surface, wonderfully contrasting with the matt marble base.

While it shines with a refined elegance when the light is turned off, when on it reveals its full potential when the lamp's light brightens the obliquely positionned shade. The light passes partly diffusely through the shade of blown glass, and also through the apertures upwards and downwards.

The Foscarini table lamp Nile has a white grey textile cable and a transparent plug.

Nile appeals with a warm accent lighting and a lively presence. Perfectly well-balanced elements and a warm light turn the stylish Foscarini light into a decorative highlight on side tables or sideboards in hotels and lounge areas or at home.
