A toucan made of ceramics: designer wall light Cubano Extraordinary designs are the trademark of the Italian lighting manufacturer Karman. The design of the wall light Cubano can justifiably be referred to as extraordinary. A toucan with its typical large beak was formed form ceramics.
A plate, also made of ceramic, with a stucco-like design serves as the wall mount. In a ceramic light, the question of the location of the light bulb is particularly important, as the lighting effect is limited with an opaque material such as ceramic. The designer of Cubano has solved this problem in a very simple way: the light bulb sits in the eye socket of the toucan and thus occupies a prominent place.
Therefore, when choosing the light bulb, you should ensure that it is a decorative one, e.g. a filament or rustic bulb. Matteo Ugolini is not only the designer of the wall light Cubano, whose name reminds you of the rainforests of Cuba, where the colourful bird with the large beak lives, amongst others. He is also Art Director and Head Designer of Karman, a designer lighting manufacturer which is based in Fossombrone in Italy and produces its lights there.
The products stand for Italian design and craftsmanship.
