CESTA METALICA BY SANTA & COLE

Steely strength for a fragile heart

A duel between fragility and strength: the Cesta Metálica is the updated version of the Cesta, with its own distinct features. It comes with or without a smooth leather handle; a stark contrast to the stern, rigid structure, that gently holds an opal globe with­out neck. Miguel Milá mastered the strength of steel by placing at its centre a delicate opal silhouette, and a touch of soft leather. A seamless expression of strength and emotion, combined with everyday practicality. The lantern is produced manually by European craftsmen, using traditional glass blowing techniques for its opal shade.

The Cesta family is made up of the Cesta, Cestita, Cestita Batería, Cestita Alubat, Cesta Metálica, and Cestita Metálica table lamps, the Wally wall lamp, and the Globo Cesta and Globo Cestita pendant lamps, symbols of Mediterranean warmth and well-being. These masterpieces by Miguel Milá are part of our Design Classics collection, a series of objects created throughout the Modernist era.
