The two blown opaline glass spheres are gently held in place by two Black, or Champagne, painted steel rings. Each ring has a small cut, enabling the spheres to be placed facing downward or upward and thus providing a direct or indirect light composition. Model 237-2 features two 5.5" diameter spheres, whereas the spheres of the model 238-2 are larger, measuring 7.9" in diameter.

Throughout his life, Gino Sarfatti was fascinated by the sky, and especially by the perfect light emanating from the moon. Le Sfere Collection is a testament to this special attraction of his. Conceived from 1959, it is a family of opaline glass lamps revolving around a single blown luminous sphere held in place by a painted aluminum ring. A simple, yet elegant principle and a refined em­brace that lends the luminaire a graphic expression to bring forth its distinctive aesthetic.

From Model 237, consisting of a single sphere, to Model 2109, that of the iconic twenty-four sphere chandelier, this family of luminaires, the largest designed by Sarfatti, was gradually expanded to fit larger commissioned projects. Among them is the famous Teatro Regio in Turin, Italy, designed by architect Carlo Mollino, where Le Sfere can still be seen in a variety of compositions, including generous 'cloudlike' cascades and columns, curated by Sarfatti, which emphasize the genius and beauty of the system. But above all, Le Sfere is a multifaceted and open lighting system, suitable for all types of spaces, created from the same fundamental principle: a beautiful interpretation of the perfect luminous sphere.
