Coralli Touch Lamp, White & Red
About the Item
This sumptuous art décor table lamp belongs to the Coralli collection designed by Massimo Marcomini, entirely handmade in Italy from superior ceramic in the Venetian tradition. The Amphora-shaped pedestal offers an intriguing contrast to the charmingly real-looking ceramic coral branch. The unique design goes together with a high-tech touch system that switches and adjusts the light with a simple, delicate touch. The light source is a 7W led strip with 3000K, 411 Lumen and 100-240V voltage.
Mythically born from Medusa’s blood turned to stone, for centuries coral has held place of honor in every Wunderkammer in the courts of Europe – the stunning one of the Gonzagas of Mantova among others – collections of wonders, blending a love of legends and scientific curiosity.
In celebration of a reimagined antiquity, made of myth and a cult of beauty, Les First Light creates a sumptuous light sculpture: ceramic coral branches glow on top of jewel-toned amphorae, immersed in a soft halo.
Les First: Light of the Gods
A luminous pantheon reinventing myth in a flow of energy and imagination: light sculptures with a strong and versatile personality, a perfect fit for both classical or Minimalist settings, born to satisfy the senses and pay tribute to a timeless beauty.

1. The Idea: Les First – Top quality Italian craftsmanship
All Les First lamps are inspired by the mythological subjects in the frescoes that Renaissance artist Giulio Romano painted in the halls of Palazzo Te for the Gonzaga lords of Mantua. Distinctive design, blending traditional handmade ceramic from potteries of Venetian tradition with specially created, innovative technology, makes the lamps unique in the field of lighting fixtures.
Les First’s top quality table-lamps are crafted in the regions of Lombardy and Veneto. Carefully handpicked artisan workshops Craft to specification the various components, that are then assembled in the Les First atelier in Mantova.
The finest ceramics and skilled handcraft guarantee top quality together with the uniqueness of artisanal production.
2. Technological Innovation: The dimmable touch lamp
The ceramic sculpture, core of the artistic composition, is enhanced by the innovative lighting cylinder of clear Plexiglas.
The micro-incisions, laser-engraved by CNC machines on the cylinder’s surface, ensure an even distribution of light across the whole pane.
The light is switched and adjusted through an innovative dedicated software, especially created by a technical laboratory in Verona. A microprocessor manages and processes the proximity effect of the user’s hand to control and adjust the light. The system, developed especially for Les First, turns the ceramic sculpture into a dimmable Touch Lamp, whose soft glow can be switched on and off and adjusted simply by touching the lamp’s ceramic base, without a conventional on-off switch.

4. Artisanal Production
Les First’s ceramic lamps are artisanal pieces, and only a few components are made industrially. Due to the complex and many-staged hand production, each lamp can show individual characters, features unique to the hand-crafting process that must not be viewed as faults. A slight unevenness in the ceramic surface can result from shrinkage during the firing stage, or from characteristic features of the antique molds. Colors may show variations, with a very individual and pleasing effect, due to the firing process of the crystalline glaze, such as the typical and prized “crackle”. In the case of gold and silver metallic coating, slight irregular cracks can occur on the surface, as the precious metals and clay undergo different dilations during the various firing and cooling stages. Pieces from the same batch can show a slightly different appearance. Such varying reactions to the manufacturing process cannot be entirely predicted even by the most experienced potter, and are part of the unique and enduring charm of hand-crafted ceramic.
Each lamp is carefully vetted against out exacting quality standards. Les First holds to the highest quality standards for manual production, as established through centuries of experience in the potteries of Vicenza. The element of imperfection, typical of all hand-made products, is not a fault – but rather the mark of Italy’s ancient handcraft tradition.
5. Assembling
Assembling a Les First lamp from its hand-crafted components requires extremely skilled work, and it is never outsourced: the owner personally assembles each piece with the help of his assistants, making sure that the final result conforms to the chosen quality standard.
6. Packaging and Shipping
All Les First products are carefully hand-packages, with materials specially designed to ensure the stability and protection of the lamps.
The crates are sized to accommodate the lamps and the protective layers of expanded polyethylene and/or high-Expansion foam that ensure the lamps’ protection if correctly handled. These inner layers can vary, according to specific needs.
The weight of the packaging must be added to that of the lamp itself.
Coralli lamp: total weight (lamp + crate) 31 kg / 68,34 lb
External dimension of the crate: 56 x 56 x 98(H) cm / 22,05 x 22,05 x 38,58(H) inches
That said, the safety of highly breakable items during shipping depends in a good measure on the carrier’s care – and therefore the choice of shipping company is crucial.
To minimize the chance of breakage or other damage during the transport, instead of the standard international shipping, Les First employs the services of carriers specializing in the shipping of highly breakable art objects.
The shipping costs are not included in the indicated prices and a specific shipping cost estimate will be provided.
7. Maintenance
Ceramic
Use only a soft cotton cloth to clean all Les First ceramic products. Do not use generic degreasers or products for polishing metals.
Glossy ceramic can be cleaned with a slightly moistened, well-wrung cloth, using a small amount of non-aggressive degreaser. Spray the degreaser on the cloth – and never directly on the ceramic surface.
Matte ceramic must only be cleaned with a soft, dry pure cotton cloth.
Metallic Colors (gold, silver, copper)
Some Les First products have a metallic gold, silver or copper surface finish. There are very delicate metal coatings. Clean exclusively with a soft, dry pure cotton cloth, and avoid any strong rubbing of the edges and/or protrusions of the ceramic parts, as this can damage the exterior finish.
Plexiglas LED panel
To clean the cylindrical LED panel, use a soft cotton cloth. If necessary slightly moisten with a small amount of special-purpose degreasers, alcohol-free, and containing no aggressive chemicals, specially meant for transparent Plexiglas surfaces.
Warning: the use of alcohol, or any alcohol based cleaner, will damage the Plexiglas LED panel. Direct exposure to sunlight will also cause damage.
Les First is not liable for damages resulting from improper cleaning/maintenance of its products.
Use and Positioning
All Les First ceramic products are breakable decorative accessories. As such, they must be safely placed on a suitable bearing surface that is absolutely level. All Les First products must not be moved by dragging or pushing them across surfaces; they must be carefully lifted and laid down, with due consideration to the product’s weight, and the supporting surface’s suitability.
Les First will not be liable for damages resulting from any improper use of its products.
