Model 2042 Ceiling Light, 1963/2019

Model 2042 ceiling light by Gino Sarfatti for Astep.

Gino Sarfatti fascination with the gentle illumination of the moon inspired the Le Sfere series, which includes the Model 2042 ceiling light. The Le Sfere collection is a multifaceted, versatile lighting system, excellent for lighting all kinds of spaces with its ambient moon-like illuminating spheres.

Designed in 1963, Model 2042/3 and Model 2042/6 are two of Gino Sarfatti’s wonderful interpretations of the luminous sphere. The elegant ceiling light is comprised of three blown opaline glass spheres supported by a painted steel mount and structure with a Black or Champagne finish. Each sphere measures 20 cm in diameter and is gently held in place by the painted steel ring in a gentle embrace that gives the light a poetic expression and brings forth Le Sfere’s unique aesthetic.
