"I think the work of a designer has to be fundamentally good, beautiful and cheap. With the 'Eclipse' lamp, I overcame the trauma of overpriced design. The lamp was ready a long time before it was produced. I had the concept, but I decided to release it only when the price was right. Designed objects have to be accessible. It is not relevant to have a project that only half dozen people can buy. We have to have popular objects. One of my friends, the famous jeweller Antonio Bernardo, said the 'Eclipse' was a victory because I was proving that something beautiful and good could also be cheap." Maurício Klabin

This scheming and attractive lamp is the original Mauricio Klabin's model, which is part of the Museum of Modern Art of New York's permanent collection. Manufactured from a single plastic band rolled up on it, the structure can be manipulated to change the form and the orientation of the light. The metal arches are equipped with small plastic parts making possible to uphold the lamp in various positions. The 'Eclipse' lamp is packed in the original Mauricio Klabin's packaging, similar to a 'pizza box'.
