Design by Martín Azúa, 2002.

From LAB Arturo Alvarez.

Custom tailor Encaixe to your own tastes in any one of 12 different colors of hand-cut stained glass. The Encaixe diffuser is closed on the bottom. Encaixe is a voluminous game, a balancing act of shapes, a stable form of tension. Three pieces that, united, create a single volume in a whimsical manner. A lucid and harmonious collection. Every Arturo Alvarez stained glass diffuser is handcrafted one-by-one by trained artisans in limited series. Each Arturo Alvarez original is yours alone; no two pieces are exactly the same. Following the painstaking production process, Arturo Alvarez himself engraves his signature and the series number onto the finished diffuser, certifying that the craftsman has exceeded Arturo's personal standards for quality. Arturo Alvarez does not manufacture lights; they create original works of art whose beauty is optimized by illumination.

The glass panels are handed welded using traditional Tiffany techniques, using lead-free solder. Stainless steel canopy.

Available in two sizes, and choice of incandescent or fluorescent lamping.
