Panthella Opal

The opal shade was the first version of the iconic Panthella design, as created by Verner Panton in the 1970s. The sculptural silhouette was a masterpiece in itself, but the opal shade with its soft, ambient glow was equally so as it enhanced the atmosphere of the room with its warmth. Available in different sizes as well as portables to suit any space.

The opal light

The opal shade is crafted from translucent acrylic, which together with the downward reflection from the inner shade and from the trumpet stem help diffuse the light softly and evenly. It creates a warm, ambient glow that fills the room, making it ideal for living areas where a cosy and inviting atmosphere is desired.
