Marset Mercer E27 surface-mounted light

Light that brightens the ceiling

The main purpose of the light fixture is not only to illuminate the space but also to gently illuminate the ceiling itself. The light reflects off the glass shell, creating a pleasant, diffused glow that softens the entire interior.

A lampshade within a lampshade as a design signature

Mercer operates on an unusual principle—the fabric shade is not on the outside, but inside the glass diffuser. The glass protects it while also multiplying light reflections, creating depth and a unique visual effect.
