Inspired by traditional storm lanterns which use glass pipes to protect the flame, Flar features a billowing glass shade designed to surround an LED filament bulb, to magnify the light source and diffuse a very soft light, filtered by the tinted glass, almost like a contemporary candle.
Flar comprises a steel base which opens like a flower, leading to a moulded blown glass shade. The contrast between the precise 3D laser cut base and the uniqueness of the blown glass bubble enhances the personality of the lamp.
The name Flar evokes images of a flare or ‘flamboiement’ in French – an intense blaze or burst of light. Highly impactful in its simplicity, Flar is a floor and table lamp that does not go unnoticed.
