With crystal effect: LED table lamp Planet - Design by Tokujin Yoshioka Designer Tokujin Yoshioka asked himself whether a lampshade made of modern plastic could create the same sparkling lighting effects as a crystal shade when he created his new lampshade series for Italian designer Kartell. Das Planet, as he later called this design, required extensive experimentation with the synthetic resin Resin. Only when this is processed in such a way that different material thicknesses come into play can a glittering effect be achieved. The result of the many experiments can be marvelled at in the Planet LED table lamp. When switched on, it emits a sparkling and glittering light that resembles a crystal lamp. The Milan-based Kartell company is known for its designer pieces made of plastic, including lights as well as furniture and household goods. The development of lights began with the 4006 model by Achille and Piergiacomo Castiglioni in 1959. Another classic light is the Tic Tac series, which was created in 1970. Many of Kartell's designer pieces have not only won various design awards, but can now also be admired as modern Klassik in museums.
