Metal chrome central reflector. Manufactured by Oluce, Italy. YOLK is a project designed by Angeletti&Ruzza who ironically and light-heartedly play on the duo concept, starting from the mix of elements making the lamp, metal and glass, which reflect and diffuse the light. This is then echoed by its name, evoking the simplicity of the quintessential two-material element, the egg, which is also the emblem of the creative duo’s generative power.
