TOOY Nabila Table Lamp

The TOOY Nabila Table Lamp, designed by Corrado Dotti, is a 1950s‑inspired table lamp that pairs a double‑layered borosilicate glass globe with a compact metal base to provide local ambient illumination for interiors.

Its nested globe construction — a clear oblate outer shell surrounding a frosted inner diffuser — creates an object‑within‑an‑object effect, balancing sculptural form with soft light. The fixture sits on a cylindrical base divided into brushed brass upper and matte black lower sections. The Nabila is available in Black Chrome with Smoke Glass and Brushed Brass with Clear Glass finishes.

Borosilicate glass gives the outer globe high optical clarity and resistance to thermal stress, while the internal frosted diffuser reduces glare for comfortable, ambient illumination. The metal structure is finished with epoxy powder and enriched with brushed brass detailing, and a weighted, compact base ensures stable placement on bedside tables, desks or sideboards.

The diffuser produces a gentle, even glow suited to ambient and accent lighting rather than focused task light. The layered glass maintains visual clarity while tempering brightness, making the lamp appropriate for bedside, living areas and office surfaces where atmosphere and balance are desired.

The lamp connects to mains via a horizontal power cord and is rated IP40, suitable for interior dry zones. Technical details such as compatible lamp types and dimming options are listed with the product's technical information; the fitting is supplied with a one‑year manufacturer's warranty.
