Foscarini produces a collection of hanging units in varnished and tinted blown glass, featuring three models in which colour plays an integral part in the shape: the large version is in orange the small version is in grey, and the longer one is in green. Designed by Ionna Vautrin in 2011, the Chouchin series is inspired by Japanese bamboo lanterns generally used as lucky charms to hang in the home. The three models come in warm colours and provide gentle, downward light to create a soft and delicate atmosphere in your living room. Following on from the success of the famous Binic lamp, Ionna Vautrin has created a combination of pendant lamps that enhances the features of your dining room table with simplicity and softness.

FOSCARINI
Foscarini was founded in 1981 in Venice. Foscarini has been producing lighting and exploring the possibilities and qualities of Murano glass since 1981, most of its design have gone on to become classics. For Foscarini, each project requires a new supplier in order to best meet the customer's requirements. Freedom of production advocated by Foscarini inspired two of the company's designers, Carlo Urbinatti and Alessancro Vecchiato, to use other materials. This strategy results in a wealth of inspirations, raw materials and technological innovations.
Foscarini's concepts, shapes and materials illuminate and transform the offerings and initiatives of international designers
