Foscarini Mite Floor Lamp is an award‑winning floor lamp by Marc Sadler for Foscarini, notable for its slender, totem‑like silhouette and innovative material treatment. The lamp is designed to deliver diffused ambient light together with a focused upward beam that gently washes ceilings for a warm, balanced atmosphere.

The form is a tall, tapering conical diffuser that widens towards the top, imparting a sculptural presence without visual bulk. The surface shows a fine linear texture produced by horizontal carbon or Kevlar thread applied over a glass‑fabric body; the range is offered in these two thread treatments to suit different schemes.

Construction combines a fibreglass/glass‑fabric diffuser with an internal metal rod and a brushed steel upper parabola that both secures the diffuser and acts as an internal reflector. The lamp sits on a low‑profile, nickel‑plated steel base for discreet, stable support.

Light is emitted through the translucent body for a soft, continuous glow along the lamp’s length while the open top projects a stronger, warm beam to the ceiling — ideal for ambient lighting in living rooms, lounges and reception areas. The fitting is rated IP20 and intended for indoor use.

The transparent cable is fitted with Foscarini’s original dimmer, which serves as both the on/off control and a continuous dimmer for adjusting luminous intensity. The product comes with a one‑year manufacturer’s warranty; please consult the technical details for lamp type and installation guidance.

At Lighting Design Online we treat the Mite as a considered ambient piece: sculptural, purposeful and craft‑led. We provide design‑led advice and clear technical notes to help integrate it into layered lighting schemes, and offer practical specification guidance so the result is both beautiful and technically confident.
