Designed by the French designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Lantern lamp was originally designed as part of the Vitra Home collection and used as an accessory to, for example, the ''Late Sofa''. Lantern has a sober but appealing shape. The compact, slightly bulbous lamp is somewhat reminiscent of a Chinese lantern. This association is underscored by its pleasantly warm, soft light. The lamp consists of two identically shaped plastic bowls. A horizontal black plastic ring serves as an artistic element that emphasises the lamp's symmetry. Two smaller black rings mark the lamp's openings, while also serving a constructional purpose (suspension and holder of the light source). The lamp's appearance is largely determined by the colour of the injection-moulded bowls, which come in white, red and black. The white bowl is used for the lower half of the lamp. LANTERN is available as a suspension lamp, standing lamp and floor lamp. The suspension lamp comes in two models, consisting of either two or three vertically assembled elements and a neon light source. The base of the standing lamp, available in two heights, consists of a sober, matt black powder-coated steel frame with a round floor plate.
