Vintage Design
This luminaire was designed by Mariyo Yagi in 1976 and produced by the Italian publisher Sirrah. This project is the fruit of theoretical research into the Japanese word “Nawa”, which translates as “Rope”, but also refers to the spiritual link connecting spirits.
This luminaire was not created alone, drawing on her experience with Isamu Noguchi. It was presented by Tobias Scarpa to Dino Gavina, founder of Studio Simon, who gave the ceiling lamp its name, Garbo, in homage to the actress Greta Garbo, referring to her singular beauty.
This luminaire is no longer produced.

The ceiling fixture is composed of a white metal base on which 5 screw-in bulbs are aligned. Fabric bangs encircle the base. This atypical luminaire diffuses a soft light.
