The Vertigo Nova pendant by Petite Friture is a softer, even more innovative version of Constance Guisset’s sculptural Vertigo luminaire. The difference between the two striking pieces lies in Vertigo Nova’s built-in LED technology that allows the light to be emitted softly through the sand-blasted glass sphere in the middle of the construction. According to Guisset, Vertigo Nova is like “a light and delicate veil floating between two worlds”, seamlessly combining cutting-edge technology with eye-catching, elegant design.
