The VV Cinquanta suspension is elegant and versatile with two posable direct light sources.

The fixture and the reflectors can be adjusted to many different positions, enabling a wide variety of both downward and upward lighting at the same time. The invitingly playful design encourages dynamic lighting compositions. The VV Cinquanta reflectors are made of enameled spun aluminium, available in original Vittoriano Viganò colors.
