GEMA S
Design by Laura Gämmerler, Pedro Sottomayor, 2023 | 2026The GEMA lighting family was first introduced by ZEITRAUM in 2023. Its distinctive ceramic shade was originally crafted in Portugal, a country with a long tradition of ceramic craftsmanship. The opaque white glass body is mouth-blown in the Veneto, casting a soft, gentle light into its surroundings.
GEMA has now been carefully reimagined. The shade is made from porcelain, a material fired at higher temperatures and greater density than ceramic, giving it exceptional durability. Production has also moved: from 2026 onwards, the shade will be crafted in a manufactory in Upper Franconia, Germany, in its new design.
The shade’s surface is finished with an engobe technique, in which the porcelain is heavily diluted and mixed with pigments. As a result, both the shade and its colored surface are made from the same material. The outcome is a matte, finely textured feel. GEMA is available in three sizes and in the colors sand, pale rose, and coal.
