Designed by Joe Colombo for Oluce

Design Joe Colombo, 1964

Designed by Joe Colombo in 1964 for Oluce, the Globe 827/828 suspension lamp is an icon of mid-century modern lighting, seamlessly combining transparency, reflection, and minimalist aesthetics. Available in table, suspension, and wall-mounted versions, the Globe suspension lamp enhances any interior with its floating elegance and sculptural presence, perfect for contemporary settings.

The lamp’s defining feature is its transparent blown-glass sphere, which elegantly encases a sleek cylindrical metal reflector that diffuses light with striking visual appeal. This unique structure makes the Globe 827/828 suspension lamp by Oluce a distinguished piece for luxury residences, contemporary interiors, and artistic spaces, crafted with exceptional design finesse.

Offered in two sizes and refined finishes—including satin nickel, satin gold, and anodic bronze—the Globe suspension lamp exemplifies the fusion of form, function, and modern elegance, continuing its legacy as a testament to Joe Colombo’s visionary approach to timeless, futuristic design that illuminates interiors with an iconic, ethereal presence.
