Product Information

Full details

The Artemide Dioscuri Wall / Ceiling Light - Large - White is designed for homeowners and designers seeking elegant, versatile lighting solutions for both indoor and outdoor spaces. Its key benefit is a beautiful, soft, diffuse light produced by a hand-blown opal glass globe, creating a welcoming ambiance. A minor caveat is the specific bulb type required for each size (E14 for Mini, E27 for others), which users should verify before purchase. This IP-rated luminaire offers a pure, graphic aesthetic suitable for contemporary bathrooms, living areas, balconies, and terraces, available in four sizes.
