Tom Dixon recently launched a new lampshade in Stockholm which is based on the the Etch shades which debuted last September.
Using a similar technique to that which is used to create the Etch shades, the Etch Web lampshade is manufactured using digital photo-acid etching whereby an image is affixed to the metal surface and submerged in an acid bath. The resulting shade is made up of an irregular pentagon which is repeated 60 times across the body. The resulting sphere is both geometric and delicate creating a weblike structure. When lit, the shade casts atmospheric, angular shadows across a room. Unlit, the stainless steel material of the shade is highly polished and provides a bright, reflective surface which adds a hint of sparkle to any room.
The Etch Web lampshade measures 60cm wide.
