“Plinio Lamp” is a tribute to the ancient Roman author Pliny the Elder on his 2000th birth anniversary.This lamp embodies the dramatic event in a captivating design. Crafted to reflect the aweinspiring eruption, the lamp emanates a celestial glow from its cloud-like peak, reminiscent of the volcanic ash and lava surge. Its sturdy base of natural basalt symbolises the enduring strength of the volcano, while above, a mushroom-shaped plume crafted from resin and cement captures the explosive moment of the eruption. Each “Plinio Lamp” stands as a unique masterpiece, with hand-selected basalt stone meticulously crafted to mirror Mount Vesuvius’s structure, and the volcanic ash-treated cloud providing authenticity and texture. This exceptional collectible piece transcends mere illumination, seamlessly blending functionality, and artistic expression. Serving as both a sculpture and installation, the lamp is unique in its kind.
