The Double Bubble lamp is a distinctive masterpiece designed by the celebrated Finnish designer Eero Aarnio in 2003. Double Bubble, or Tupla Kupla in Finnish, was initially created from blown glass but was ultimately cast in plastic to ensure durability and uniform color of light. To light up evenly and smoothly its curvy shape, Double Bubble is fitted with three light sources: one in each bubble and one in the leg. Although it is just as at home on top of a sideboard or side table, Double Bubble has proved to be a very popular choice for a window light.

During the years, Aarnio has experimented with a variety of different materials, including plastic, fiberglass and foam plastic.
