38Vt Table Lamp
Made by Bocci
Designed by Omer Arbel
Omer Arbel's 38 Series began as a rigorous investigation into the behavior of molten glass under controlled pressure. The 38Vt distills that inquiry to a single large sphere, defined by its characteristic imploded milk-glass openings, voids formed mid-blow that scatter light inward and produce a soft, atmospheric depth that shifts with the viewer's position.
The hardware is composed with the same precision as the glass. A sleek cylinder houses an integral dimming system, while the semi-rigid black fabric cord holds whatever form it is given, allowing the lamp's posture to function as a secondary gesture of arrangement.
- Blown borosilicate glass with imploded milk-glass voids
- Integral dimmer housed in the cylindrical base
- Semi-rigid black fabric cord, poseable by hand
- Notched underside enables wall-mounting as a sconce
A small notch on the underside of the stand extends the piece's range: fixed to a wall, the 38Vt reads as a sconce, without additional hardware. One object, two distinct lives.
Typically ships in 2-4 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the 38Vt glass sphere unique?
The sphere is hand-blown using Bocci's distinctive process of controlled internal pressure, which creates imploded cavities within the milk glass. These voids scatter and diffuse light from within, producing a depth and warmth that varies across each individual piece.
Can the 38Vt be used as a wall light?
Yes. The cylindrical stand includes a small notch on its underside that allows it to be hung directly on a wall without additional hardware, giving the piece genuine flexibility across residential and hospitality installations.
How does the dimming system work on the 38Vt?
An integral dimmer is built into the cylindrical base of the lamp, allowing light output to be adjusted directly at the fixture rather than through an in-line switch or wall control.
What hardware finishes are available for the 38Vt?
The 38Vt is offered with either brass or black hardware, including the cylinder base and associated fittings. Both options work with the semi-rigid black fabric cord.
