Planet Lighting Series. The master of transparency, Tokujin Yoshioka, plays with magical spheres: he does not resort to the tricks of magicians but instead pours all his experience in plastic processing into his first lights for the Italian brand Kartell. Instead of crystal glass, he uses a casting resin made of transparent acrylic, which refracts light differently at every viewing angle due to its varying material thickness. The complex faceting interacts with the physical lens effect, resulting in a magical sparkle that cannot be achieved with crystal glass. Kartell offers the magical glittering spheres either as a pendant light or a table lamp, the latter available in two versions: one perfectly round with a base or elevated on a stand.

Mini Planet Mobile LED Table Lamp with Battery. The glittering sphere cleverly hides the permanently integrated LED light source in the base, allowing the light to shine almost glare-free. In its "Mini" size, the mobile table lamp can not only be dimmed in light intensity thanks to its rechargeable battery but also serves as a safe – and beautiful – lighting option on the dining table.
