The Vistosi Anisette collection translates the familiar form of a lantern into modern geometries. Two frosted white crystal diffusers surround the light source and can be arranged in four configurations.
Anisette: the geometry of a lantern
With Anisette, Vistosi takes the form of a lantern and develops it into a collection of modern geometries. The two glass bodies create a visible dialogue with the internal light source and the transparency of the glass. The Vistosi Medea lamp presents a different approach to clear geometric forms, while the Scintilla collection explores how light takes shape through crystal.
Two diffusers, four configurations
The special attachment system completely conceals the frame and secures the glass without drilling. This allows the two frosted white crystal diffusers to be arranged in four different configurations. Each variation changes the interplay between the light source and the transparency of the glass. The available versions of Vistosi Anisette show how the same two elements create different silhouettes.
The Vistosi collections Oto, Peggy and Puppet in Spanish private residences also demonstrate how versatile glass lamps can be in furnished interiors. The Peggy, Futura and Stone collection offers another perspective on Vistosi designs that have become icons.
The design by Francesco Lucchese
The design is by Francesco Lucchese. It began with a sketch before taking shape in the glass factory and becoming a finished lamp. For Lucchese, a team composed of different skills and backgrounds is the strength of every project. The Vistosi Medea designed by Oriano Favaretto provides another view of the relationship between design and geometric form.
Murano glass since 1585
Vistosi has been shaping Murano glass since 1585. The glassworks describes its history as a continuous dialogue between liquid and solid, dream and reality. Venice remains its muse while its gaze is directed towards new frontiers of design. Vistosi develops and produces decorative lamps and design objects in more than 80 collections; many allow cluster compositions and even completely customised products.
This history and the collections can also be explored in the virtual museum of Vistosi. The museum brings together the world of the manufacturer and its many collections in a digital setting.
