The in the tube > collection comprises strong forms, designs that are both free and constrained, developed in several lengths, diameters and colors. Made in borosilicate glass and closed with aluminum stoppers sealed in silicon, the mountings are in stainless-steel which allow it to be used as a suspension as well as wall or ceiling-mount. « IN THE TUBE » diffuses a soft, filtered light that can be orientated by the movable mesh filter or by a reflector whose color determines the light given: stainless steel for a silver light, anodized aluminum for copper or gold.
The in the tube > collection of high-performance tubes (IP64) could be just as easily at home in a James Bond spy kit as it could in a Jules Verne rocket.
