Ussari Bay Big, brass and glass table and floor lamp by Angela Ardisson
About the Item
The Ussari Bay project consists in a collection of table lamps, floor lamps, wall lamps and suspension lamps came to life in 2018. Its name was inspired by a large natural bay located within the Peter the Great Gulf, in the Sea of Japan, originally used as a landfill for all kinds of bottles. Over the years, the incessant action of the sea and winds has eroded and shaped the pieces of glass into beautiful smooth and shiny pebbles.
The ogival shape of the bronze structure reminds that of a broken bullet, where, over time, the original content has been replaced by a luminous faceted gem: it’s light versus darkness, a humble and sincere invitation of the italian artist to embrace the concept of peace, to seek beauty everywhere and to live in harmony with Nature.
Angela Ardisson had also decided to create a rechargeable version of the lamp, eliminating the power cable and highlighting its sculptural beauty, without affecting its primary light function.
The lamp-gems are available in different color shades: amethyst (smooth ruby red), sage (smooth dark green), and bronze (smooth brown).
Transparency, brightness, aesthetic minimalism, preciousness and light are the distinctive features of this family of lamps, whose common trait is the presence of glass and brass. Their design is based on a unique concept that Angela Ardisson has developed over years of creative work.

Angela Ardisson
Angela Ardisson is an Italian artist specializing in product design. She has been pursuing her creative and design activity since 1987, exploring the boundless universe of matter. Metals, since 1994, have been the key factor of the most creative moments of her career: brass, iron, bronze, silver and copper melted together and mixed with blown glass.
The passion for multi-disciplinary design defines her artistic eclecticism.
She has taken part in the Milan Design Week/Fuori Salone every year since 1989, often joining more events at the same time. Yesterday as today, the most outstanding signature of her art
is the combination of lines and chromatic shades due to the natural oxidation of metals,
which are organically treated. The love for light, shadows and reflections is the leitmotiv
of her entire work, which she likes to define “the art of living matter”. In 2000 she founded Artplayfactory, her workshop and creative studio in Milan, where she currently works and creates. She has been collaborating with Baxter since 2013 and her brass suspension lamp “Lais” is still successfully featured in their collections.
Inner color glass filter options: green sage, ametista (ruby red), bronze

- Kepler K15T, Brass and Blown Glass Table Lamp by Angela ArdissonLocated in Milano, ITThe starting point of Angela Ardisson’s creative process for the new collection is a single and precise shape: the sphere. The study of its geometric volume and a rational composition of all interlocking elements has guided her towards a very clean design. No technical or mechanical disturbance interferes with the purity of the shape. That’s why she decided to avoid welding and went instead for very precise turnings, to assemble all the pieces. In the creation of the Kepler collection, I had the honor to gather the most skilled Italian artisans using highly advanced cutting technologies (laser-cut and water-jet) but also the more traditional glass hand-blowing and twisting processes. The only and final supervisor during all work phases was the caliper and all measures were to the tenth. The glass is hand-twisted with fire and it spreads its warm light right from the heart of the lamp. The polished brass surfaces are filtered by the transparency of the glass layer, with a reciprocal exchange of uninterrupted light reflection effects. The metal of the Kepler lamps goes through several modification phases, which I personally carried out. She can obtain unique coats and textures reveiling themselves on the shiny brass surface, like in a vintage mirror. The symbol of this collection is “the reflection” and Angela Ardisson is searching for its purest form through her modern alchemical approach. The K30 and K50 floor models, in spite of the volume and weight of the materials used, are extremely light, both in terms of their visual size and specific weight. These floor lamps will enrich the living areas and relax points in the house with elegant light reflections and a touch of personal elegance. All models of Kepler floor and ceiling lamps...Category
