Resembling a glittering diamond, the XiX Light by Formfjord captures endless light modulations when displayed within one's home. The playfully prismatic lamp accessory features a [three dimensional geometric frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impulse-wall-light) made from a variety of colored glass pieces.

The illuminator creates multifaceted views thanks to its [OLED panels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ilo-lamp) and cut glass construction. From highlighter green and yellow hues to luminescent blue and pink glass pieces, this [jewelled lighting accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-pendant-light) makes a perfect addition to any design conscious home.

Whether creating a kid-friendly light constellation, adding bling to a teenager's abode or embracing eclectic glamor amidst a modern interior, the XiX Light by Formfjord defies the "less is more" design motto. The accessory instead chooses to embraces a bold aesthetic that is ornate and eccentrically elegant.
