Paint T2 Lavagna Table Lamp by In-es.artdesign

Paint T2 Lavagna by In-es.artdesign is the Paint shade on a flexible 50 cm stem, with a blackboard-effect shell and a colored interior. It is designed by Oçilunam and made to order in Ariccia, just outside Rome.

Matt pairs the glow of Nebulite with a hand-applied outer skin. Lavagna is a blackboard-effect resin you can actually draw on, write on and wipe clean; Cemento is a concrete-effect varnish that gives the shade the weight and grain of raw building material, while the color inside stays bright.

The Design Story

In-es.artdesign was founded in 2003 by the Italian artist and designer Oçilunam to bring art and design together in light. The studio works with craft-inspired techniques, balancing light and shadow with pure color and contrasting textures, and makes every piece in Italy under strict quality control. The Paint T2 Lavagna belongs to the Matt collection.

Why You'll Love It

On a sideboard, a desk or a bedside table, the Paint T2 Lavagna gives a warm, diffused glow that flatters faces and objects alike.

The surface is never flat or plastic-looking: the hand-laid fibers in the Nebulite give the glow depth and movement, so the Paint T2 Lavagna looks different at dusk, at night and in daylight.

Choose from 8 options in the interior color menu above; each tile shows the color combination. Screens show color a little differently than real life, and the hand-finished surface varies slightly from piece to piece.

Made for Real Life

We supply the Paint T2 Lavagna with a UL-listed cable for US installation; the bulb is sold separately so you can choose your own color temperature.

Questions We Hear Most

What is the Paint T2 Lavagna made of?

The Paint T2 Lavagna is made of steel, Nebulite (fiberglass), nylon, cast iron, blackboard-effect resin. Nebulite is In-es.artdesign's own resin-and-fiber composite, finished by hand in Italy, which is why each shade has its own slightly irregular texture.

Can I really draw on the Paint T2 Lavagna?

Yes. The outer shell of the Paint T2 Lavagna is a blackboard-effect resin, so you can write or sketch on it with chalk and wipe it clean, the way In-es.artdesign intended.

Will the Paint T2 Lavagna work with US wiring?

Yes. We order every Paint T2 Lavagna with a UL-listed cable for US installation. The bulb is not included; use the type shown in the specifications.

What do the add-ons on the Paint T2 Lavagna do?

The LED dimmer is fitted by In-es.artdesign so you can lower the light when you use a dimmable LED bulb.

How long does the Paint T2 Lavagna take to arrive?

Each Paint T2 Lavagna is made to order in Italy and ships in 2 to 4 weeks. Because it is made for you, it is a final sale, so take a moment to check size and finish before you order; we are happy to help.
