Executed in chromed brass and pressed (holophane) glass and designed by the Milan based collective founded by Gian Luigi Banfi, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, Enrico Peressutti and Ernesto Nathan Rogers.

With it's generous scale and geometric shade, the 'Polinnia' provides a soft glow when lit and makes a beautiful accent light on end tables, consoles, or other areas in need of statement lighting.
