The Rituals lamps recall the paper lanterns used in Oriental culture, but they are made of blown glass, a material boasting a thousand-year Venetian tradition, in different yet complementing shapes. The Rituals suspension lamps have an imposing presence, casting a warm, sunny glow.

The challenge was to translate the lightness of washi paper used in oriental lanterns into a group of glass lights. Only Foscarini’s experience, combined with the skill of master Murano glassmakers made this creation possible. A family of lamps all concentrated on the diffuser and defined by the volume and material nature of glass. Lamps with diffused light, available in two versions with G9 or E27 lamp-holder. A collection of three diffuser shapes in hand-blown glass made using a glass-blowing procedure without turning the glass in the mould (referred to as "stationary"); the striped effect is achieved using a mould with negative decorations which are repeated across the surface of the glass, which is subsequently ground manually "by belt" and which then undergoes immersion in acid in order to emphasise the plaster-like effect. Rituals emits a very private, evocative light. Each one has a different function and position.In a composition they form a single, luminous object for a large space or relaxation area.
