Product Insights
The Sopal large hanging lamp, a curved variant of the avant-garde Nopal designed in-house after a Mexico trip, is handmade in Quebec by a 13-person workshop, with each piece featuring subtle artisanal variations. Its core promise is a sculptural focal point that diffuses light 360° via a frosted opal glass globe, eliminating glare even with high-output LEDs, suitable for tables 33–44 inches wide. The main tradeoff is that handcrafting results in natural variations in the matte powder-coat finish and hand-blown glass, making each unique but inconsistent, and it is built to order with a fixed 72-inch cord.
