Eolie Pendant Light

Design: Alberto and Francesco Meda, 2025 for Foscarini.

An innovative research on materials transforms lava stone processing waste into an unprecedented lightweight compound. The Eolie suspension lamps, available in three different organic volumes and soft shapes, offer great compositional freedom while preserving the raw expressiveness of natural lava.

Direct light suspension lamp. Lava stone diffuser, obtained from a special amalgam derived from recovered lava waste mixed with resins, made by pouring the fluid mixture into a mold. Black cable and ceiling rose with galvanized metal bracket and black masterized ABS cover. Available kit for rosette decentralization – multiple rosette (up to 9 suspensions). Alicudi, Filicudi, and Panarea are made of recycled lava. Unlike stones such as marble, lava is not extracted but collected from the ground where the magma cools and solidifies after an eruption. The cutting process generates numerous processing scraps that, pulverized and mixed with resins, Foscarini transforms into a new, lightweight material that can be poured into molds. A sustainable solution that enhances a waste material, with porous surfaces and unrepeatable textures that make each piece unique.
