Meet the Designer
Designed by
Pablo Studio
Pablo Studio is a tight-knit San Francisco team that picks one idea, refines it and strips it down to its essence. Their goal: objects that feel personal and a little surprising every time you use them.
The Design Story
Bola, Spanish for “ball,” is one of Pablo Designs’ signature collections, developed by Pablo Studio, the San Francisco team founded by Pablo Pardo in 1993. Every Bola pairs a softly glowing opal glass globe with a post, mirrored disc, ring or shade so the light appears to float.
Why You’ll Love It
Switched on, the perforations sparkle and cast delicate patterns; tilted, the bell looks relaxed and sculptural.
Made for Real Life
Hardwired and dimmable on TRIAC/ELV or 0–10V; LED rated 50,000 hours and covered for five years. Indoor use only: Pablo lists no wet or damp rating.
