the moaré (Moiré) series is so called due to the effect of the two superimposed cylindrical shades. a material used for industrial curtains has allowed the screens to be made for this series of lamps that create a luminous effect of symmetrical waters, as if silken fabric was being used. the moiré effect occurs when the two similar weaves are superimposed. arola exploits this optical effect by nesting two concentric cylinders with different-sized mesh. the result is a double cylinder of wavelike reflections that vary according to the angle of the light. the series consists of hanging, floor and table lamps.
the table and floor lamps both have a rectangular aluminium tube column finished in graphite that rises from a solid cast base, also finished in graphite. the light source of all the lamps in the range consists of three incandescent bulbs controlled by a dimmer. the bulbs are protected by a cylindrical acrylic-satin diffuser. the shade material is made of very tough thread with an extremely strong fire-resistant covering. text & images by santa & cole.
it is strongly suggested that you order a white inner shade for best results.
