Description
The new series of Ambra light sculptures is a wonderful combination of Mexican volcanic stone "Toba volcanica" and aluminum. This flagship piece is structured with minerals, glass and volcanic debris ejected a million years ago during titanic eruptions. Debris of matter in the surfaces attests to explosions and aggregations over time. "Ambra pendant" fuses sculptural stone with an aluminum piece. It invites us to the unique, to elegance. David Pompa's signature is the art of combining modernity and traditional craftsmanship.

The new series of light sculptures named Ambra combines volumes of ancient stones and aluminium. Centerpiece is the Mexican “Toba volcánica” stone that consists of minerals, glass and volcanic debris ejected one million years ago during severe eruptions. Fragments in the geometrical surfaces are testament to these explosions and movement.
The contrast between porous textures and smooth dark red underlines the studios contemporary approach on traditional materials and craft. The connecting components between the sculptural stone elements and the aluminium parts originate from an intensive research of linking unique handmade shapes with industrial parts.
