Italian Architecture Illuminators

The Cupolone Lamp is Inspired by the St. Peter's Basilica Dome

The Cupolone Lamp has been created by the Italy-based Studio AMeBE for design brand Seletti as an architectural illuminator that draws inspiration from an iconic building.

The light is inspired by the dome of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican City in Rome and features an ornate build that is achieved using resin. Measuring 70 centimeters in diameter, the pendant light brings a touch of Italian heritage into any space and boasts a fantastical aesthetic that is perfect for placement over a countertop or dining table.

The Seletti Cupolone Lamp has been designed in gray and white color varieties with a gilded interior section to convey a warm, inviting illumination that will brighten up a space in more ways than one.
