Abat-Jour

Abat-jour is a lamp of great effect, capable of enhancing the quality of the filigree made in Fabriano.

What makes our lamp unique is the ease with which it is possible to replace the filigree (in this image the “Madonna dell’Umiltà” by Gentile da Fabriano is depicted) … just like that, unlike the other lamps on the market, your Abat -jour will be able to host all your favorite watermarks over time.

Our Abat-Jour:


Abat-Jour

Abat-Jour has a transparent plexiglass frame with joints made with 3D printing technology. The lightness and transparency of the plexiglass gives this lamp a sober and elegant line that blends perfectly with the classicism and beauty of the filigree … rigorously handmade in Fabriano.

Customize the Abat-Jour

The front part of the base lends itself to being engraved and when the lamp is turned on, the engraving magically comes to life, lighting up thanks to the refractive properties of Plexiglass. You choose the type of customization, it can be an image (here next to the famous Sturinalto Fountain located in the square of the Municipality of Fabriano), a dedication or why not … both.
