LED-Ginger A Wall
Marset | Joan Gaspar
Wood is a great ally of cozy lighting. It is a material that is hard to mold, a challenge that the LED-Ginger collection neatly resolves. The combination of sheets of wood, paper, and resins pressed together under high pressure achieves a laminate that appears almost entirely flat, which discreetly lights up spaces with indirect light.
These two wall versions add a simple folding structure to the lampshade, turning it into the perfect lamp for the head of a bed, to illuminate a reading corner or even to be used as an occasional lamp over a table.
Both sizes are available for hardwire and softwire applications.
The Ginger is also available as a wall-mounted sconce.

Brand
Marset
Marset was established in 1942 as a family business, not making lighting, but as a foundry. That foundation in casting metals did eventually segue into lighting design, however, with Francisco Marset formally establishing Marset Illuminacion in 1965.
The decades spent experimenting with and molding metal translated well into the contemporary lighting industry: manipulating all kinds of materials to create unexpected, atmospheric lighting effects.
