Aella 1968

Aella 1968 remains one of the icons of Leucos, representing our vision to bring a fresh, contemporary point of view to traditional handblown glass techniques. As a Maestro from the Veneto region of Italy hand blows Aella, they create a stunning cone of glass frozen in its diffuser. As if by magic, a vortex of light appears to float inside this glass cone when lite up and beautifully illuminates your space. Toso & Massari’s design inspiration was Aella (the Ancient Greek word for “whirlwind”), who was the first Amazon warrior princess bold enough to lunge at Heracles. Aella has recently been updated by the original designers to included LED options, table and suspension versions as well as different size, shape and color profiles. Updated in 2017 by the original designers, Aella is now available as a table or pendant, and comes in various shapes and sizes: Aella Mini, Aella 1968 Classic, Aella Bold and Aella Thin. Aella 1968 T comes in four glass/base combinations: (transparent/chrome, transparent/gold, smoke grey/gunmetal, and transparent/onyx. Custom finishes and finish combinations available on request. Integrated LED technology for improved cost and energy savings. Handblown in small batches by a Maestro in the Veneto region of Italy.
