Frederik Delbart has completed for Belgian manufacturer PER/USE, a collection of lamps with a wooden base and a transparent glass top. The Siblings lamps are based on the concept of clarity, clearly defined by the use of glass, but also by the newest LED-technology that provides a pleasant light. The new design has been awarded with the prestigious Henry van de Velde Label in 2014.

The glass top can be rotated to aim the light beam, creating playful and shiny reflections in the clear glass cone of the lamp top. The reflections delicately accentuate the pure formal lines and the contrast between the shiny glass and matte wooden base.

The Siblings lamps come available in four heights, 23 cm, 120 cm, 50,5 cm and 31,5 cm as wall, floor, table and small table lamp. The base is made of natural wood treated with oil, matte black and matte white.
