The Foscarini Design Workshop offers lighting that evokes a flood of emotion through its purposeful designs. The company has a full stable of impressive, renowned, and progressively thinking designers, as well as collections to mirror those reputations. Collections like Big Bang and Caboche are as intricate as they are eye-catching, and can prove to be quite versatile as an element of design. Foscarini's other notable collections are Gregg and Havana, which both offer functional lighting with a focus on simplicity and modern design. Also, the Tress and Twiggy collections present an even more modern take on lighting design, while again offering simplicity in research based design.

Resulting from the desire to create a precious and
charming lamp like a pearl bracelet, accommodated with a
focus on lightweight and transparency thanks to the use
of PMMA, Caboche established itself from the onset as
one of Foscarini's best-selling products, and it has
become a genuine icon in the world of lighting and
design. Rich, bright and sophisticated, Caboche is a
mosaic of refractions, a perfect fusion of different
personalities in the one form, coming together to create
the body and light effect of the lamp. When it is turned
on, the light diffuses from inside the spheres like lots
of bright crystals, providing 360° lighting of the
surrounding environment and guaranteeing direct lighting
on the underlying surface and reflection on the ceiling.
This lighting emotion is also vouched by Led versions –
affording high energy efficiency levels and durability -
completely re-engineered in terms of lighting technology
especially to ensure the same intensity, diffusion and
temperature as the light produced by the original
version. Caboche suspension lamp is a jewel of
creativity and technology, available in three sizes and
two versions: transparent and yellow gold. The lamp is
the perfect protagonist for homes or public areas,
uniting visual impact with lightness, decorative value
and functionality. Caboche, suspension design Patricia
