Cyclampa

Real bicycle wheels, reborn as light. Cyclampa is an Italian series by designer Fabio Antinori that turns original die-cast aluminum bicycle wheels and chromed steel forks into LED lamps. We've been curating design-led lighting since 2009, and Cyclampa is one of the most memorable pieces we offer.

We curate Cyclampa by where the light goes and what it has to do: pick the fixture type, then the size and finish that suit your room.
