The perfection of the glass and sphere define Pallina, the most essential light in the Fontana Arte collection. Inspired by Italian theatre and the Broadway musicals of the 1940s and 50s, this lamp is a must for every space in the home. In the bedroom, the lounge or the hallway, Pallina stands out with simple shapes and elegant materials.
Luigi Fontana was founded in Milan in 1881 and specialised in the production of glass panels for the construction industry.
In 1931, the FontanaArte brand was born and achieved instant success, with the 0024 pendant light by Gio Ponti, who was artistic director of FontanaArte at the time. The Bilia table lamp followed with its timeless design thanks to the perfect balance of its dimensions and the understated elegance of the non-reflective materials used. FontanaArte installed a new oven - the only one in Italy - designed to produce glass panels of all curvatures, in order to inject new momentum into the production of prestigious furnishings.
