Argizaiola
The Argizaiola lamp is inspired by the object of the same name that was formerly used in Gipuzkoa and north of Navarre to offer the ancestors in religious ceremonies. Symbolizing a continuation of the sacred fire of the home in the grave.
The exercise is inspired by the shape of a particular argizaiola and very unusual, cylindrical, to design a lamp that illuminates the home. The luminaire is made of two circular pieces of fir plywood, a methacrylate cylinder as a diffuser and a rope that is wound around the lamp as the matchstick did in the old argizaiolas.
