IL PEZZO 3 BUGIA
Rechargeable LED table lamp
Designed for a table for two, it sits to the side and is equipped with two LEDs: one illuminates the candle without glare, creating a warm atmosphere while still allowing you to see the person in front of you; the other is dedicated to functional lighting for the tabletop. With a high colour rendering index (CRI > 95), it accurately reproduces the true quality of what it illuminates.
It is equipped with a touch dimmer. Battery life at full power is 14 hours; charging time via USB-C port is approximately 6 hours.
The LED, dimmer, battery and integrated electronics are the hidden heart of Bugia: an invisible technology enclosed between brass, alabaster and crystal, bringing an ancient gesture into the present and transforming it into an object made to last.
Structure
Hand-curved, satin-finished brass. The finish is deliberately “imperfect”, a choice that enhances its material quality to the touch. The metal is protected by a hand-applied varnish that respects its natural character; its special feature is that it can be easily restored or, if preferred, left to age naturally, developing a unique patina over time.
Solid crystal
The Crystal Masters of Colle di Val d’Elsa work the molten material using an exclusive technique, which has allowed us to create a complex shape with a threaded base. The crystal is therefore firmly secured to the structure and can also be easily removed. The solid crystal allows natural light to create wonderful refractions, while the LED produces a special effect at the tip, reminiscent of a candle flame.
Alabaster base
Volterra alabaster, crafted by a small artisan workshop active since the 1950s. We chose it for its veining, which is interesting yet never excessive, and for its tactile quality. Its translucent nature absorbs the downward-facing LED light without reflecting it, so the glow never disturbs the eye; it also allowed us to conceal the charging indicator without adding extra holes: when the cable is connected, a red light appears at the centre of the base.
LED 2700 K · CRI > 95
We believe that light should reveal everything exactly as it truly is. For this reason, Bugia’s LEDs have a CRI above 95, ensuring high colour rendering: everything they illuminate appears exactly as it was created or chosen. We also wanted the light to be warm, at 2700 K: both functional and intimate.
USB-C / USB-A cable
The supplied cable is fabric-covered, soft, pleasant to the touch and long enough to reach even the most distant socket.
Touch dimmer
Progressive adjustment across the full range of intensity. A small brass button, recessed into the base, turns the lamp on and off and adjusts its intensity. On request, the dimmer can be configured in 4 steps.
