Foscarini Mite LED Floor Lamp

Designed by Marc Sadler for Foscarini

Available in either Yellow or Black.

This is the new energy saving LED version which uses a 24W LED that produces a powerful output of 3530 lumens and the colour temperature is now 2700k warm white. 

This floor lamp lights upwards and also through the body of the floor lamp. An in-line dimmer switch is included. 

One of the main advantages of the LED version over the E27 ( edison screw ) version is the LED version can produce a more uniform dispersal of light.

The collaboration between Foscarini and Marc Sadler began with Mite, a floor lamp so innovative that it was awarded the Compasso d’Oro (Golden Compass) in 2001. The company and the designer even developed a special patent for Mite: a mix of fibreglass and carbon thread or Kevlar® that acts as both decoration and a supporting structure at the same time. Technology previously used to produce fishing rods, oars and golf clubs was introduced to the lighting world for the first time. The circular shape at the bottom of the lamp extends upwards to where the light source is housed. Mite guarantees excellent lighting through an illusion of inner parabolas, projecting an intense and warm band of light towards the ceiling. The inner lighting enhances the decoration and the lamp’s slender shape. Mite furnishes any room with an uncluttered presence and an elegant personality.

A floor lamp with diffused and indirect light. Diffuser achieved using an artisanal process that entails the application of a Kevlar® thread for the yellow version and a carbon thread for the black version onto a glass fabric. Internal metal rod; the brushed steel upper parabola acts both to lock the diffuser onto the rod as well as a light reflector inside the diffuser. Nickel-plated steel base. The transparent cable is fitted with a dimmer which can be used both to adjust the level of luminous intensity gradually or as the ON/OFF switch.
Materials: fiberglass fabric with Kevlar®
or carbonium thread and chrome metal
(Kevlar® is a Dupont registered trademark)
