The FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp is a mouth-blown, milk-white glass diffuser on a slim stem and round base, with a fine ribbed surface that gives a warm, enveloping light.
Bianca is a family of luminaires with the decoration on the diffuser surface features an orderly series of shallow delicate grooves etched into the white glass, yielding an effect resembling small footprints on fresh snow.
The Design Story
Matti Klenell designed the Bianca family for FontanaArte in 2015. The diffusers are mouth blown, belt sanded and dipped in acid to obtain the distinctive "silk effect" typical of fine glassware, and the matt white coating on the metal supports echoes the name and color of the glass. The floor version stands on a base and stem.
About the Designer
Since graduating from Konstfack in Stockholm in 1999, Matti Klenell has worked on design commissions for manufacturers in Europe and Asia, including Iittala, NakNak, Källemo, Moooi, Bals Tokyo, Muuto and Örsjö. Alongside this he has developed his own language as a glass artist, with several solo exhibitions and public art commissions. The two tracks of his profession often influence each other, and the mix of art, craft and design characterizes his work, a personal, innovative take on the Scandinavian design tradition.

Frequently Asked Questions: FontanaArte Bianca Floor Lamp by Matti Klenell
Who designed the FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp?
The FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp was designed by Matti Klenell in 2015. Klenell, a Konstfack graduate who works as both a designer and a glass artist, brings a personal, innovative take on the Scandinavian design tradition to FontanaArte of Milano. The floor version sets the Bianca glass diffuser on a slim stem and round base.
How tall is the FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp?
Per the maker's drawing, the FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp stands 69.8 in (177.3 cm) high, with a diameter of 19.6 in (49.8 cm). At that height the glass diffuser sits well above seat level, so the lamp can stand beside a sofa or armchair and light the surrounding space.
What is the Bianca floor lamp made of?
The Bianca floor lamp is made of glass and metal. The diffuser is mouth blown in milk-white glass, belt sanded and dipped in acid for the "silk effect" typical of fine glassware, and the metal base and stem carry a matt white coating that echoes the glass. The diffuser's shallow grooves recall small footprints on fresh snow.
What bulb does the FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp take?
The FontanaArte Bianca floor lamp takes one E26 bulb, up to 116 W, at 110 V. Because it uses a standard E26 base, the bulb can be chosen to suit the room within that maximum.
Is the Bianca floor lamp dimmable?
Yes. The maker lists the Bianca floor lamp as dimmable, so its glow can be brought down from general room light to a soft evening ambience. The instruction sheet for the Bianca family is linked in the documents above.
What kind of light does the Bianca floor lamp give?
The Bianca floor lamp gives a warm, diffused and enveloping light. The ribbed, milk-white glass spreads the bulb across the whole diffuser, so the lamp glows evenly in all directions rather than casting a beam. It is rated IP20, for dry indoor locations only.
Where does the Matti Klenell Bianca floor lamp work best?
With its slim stem and softly glowing glass globe, the Bianca floor lamp suits a living room corner, a bedroom or a reading area where gentle ambient light is wanted. Its clean lines and white palette fit contemporary, minimalist and Scandinavian interiors, and it belongs to the wider Bianca family by Matti Klenell.
