118p Portable Table Lamp
by Omer Arbel from Bocci
118p portable table lamp
Design Omer Arbel
Hand blown & formed glass, brass
Made in Vancouver BC by Bocci
The 118p extends the 118 Series, translating its sculptural and feather-like glass form into a portable light.
Each piece is formed within a reusable steel cage. As air is introduced, the glass expands to fill the open spaces within the framework. Heat keeps it pliable while gravity draws it downward, creating elongated forms that follow the steel cage's contours, yielding gentle stretches and marks. Once the piece cools and sets, the steel structure is removed, cleaned, and used again. The finished sphere bears the subtle traces of the shaping process. Hand-formed in Bocci Vancouver studio, every 118p is slightly different, reflecting the controlled variation of its making.
The 118p is offered in white, bronze, green, and grey. It features three dimming levels and USB-C compatible charging. A 45-minute charge powers up to 8 hours of use at full brightness or up to 80 hours on the lowest setting.
5.1" - 5.75" diameter | 5.7" - 6.3" h | bulb: 1x integrated LED (110 lumens - 2500K - dimmable - IP55)
