Fungo Sculpture

Design

The Fungo Large Sculpture takes its cue from a mushroom growing from wood, a simple form turned striking. Discovered as a motif in the basement of a glassworks, it was shaped by the Campana Brothers into something bold and assured. Clear blown glass seems to push out from a disciplined wooden armature, creating a tension between structure and spontaneity. It reads as sculpture first, yet sits comfortably within the realm of lighting objects for those who collect statement pieces.

This Clear / Large edition holds presence without shouting. The silhouette is rounded and generous, with glass that looks almost freshly formed, as if still in motion.

Materials & Build

Glass and wood carry the story. The glass is clear and handmade, with natural bubbles and delicate shade variations that speak to the process. No two elements are identical, and that is the point. The frame is ash, chosen for its grain and stability, giving the organic glass a grounded counterpart.

Proportions are substantial: approximately 66.9 inches in diameter and 51.8 inches in height, with a weight near 154.3 pounds. In the hand and in the room, it feels solid, intentional, and crafted for real spaces, not just for show.

Atmosphere

Fungo plays with light rather than broadcasting it. Clear glass collects reflections and throws them back softly, picking up daylight and the glow of the room. Edges blur, surfaces brighten, and the piece gains depth as the day moves.

Stand close and the bubbles reveal themselves; step back and the form resolves into a single gesture. It stays calm, even when the space is busy around it.

Placement & Lifestyle

It performs in large entries, gallery-like living rooms, and hospitality spaces that ask for character. Place it where sightlines are generous and where its surface can catch changing light—a stair void, an open plan, a lobby wall.

The Fungo by Lasvit is available in two shape variations, making it easier to echo the language across a project. The Clear / Large version anchors the composition; the alternate variation can complement or stand apart.

Longevity

Materials are chosen to age well. Ash holds its form, and the clear glass keeps its clarity with simple care. Wipe gently, avoid harsh cleaners, and accept the small bubbles as part of the work—they are not flaws; they are the record of how it was made.

Built with restraint and purpose, the Fungo Large Sculpture is meant to live with the architecture, not against it. Years on, the dialogue between wood and glass remains the appeal.
