Hotel Gabrielli, Venezia — pannelli Lucens accesi

Lucens

Tapestries
of light.

Jacquard textile artworks that light up from within the weave: silk and precious yarns interwoven with luminous fibres on Rubelli looms. Made to measure, with architecture and interior studios, from concept to installation.

Let's talk about your project→ Technical sheet

The principle

A decorative fabric and a filigree of light.

Light does not settle on the fabric: it is born within it and surfaces through the design. Where the motif thins, it emerges in warm gold; where the weave is dense, it rests in shadow. A warm, extended, fully dimmable light.

ONOFF

Lucens Ruskin

Damask

From the Rubelli archive, a floral arabesque worn by time: burnished gold on a silver-pewter ground. Lit, the motif becomes a silhouette and light fills the eroded spaces.

ONOFF

Lucens Dripping

Abstract

From the Rubelli archive, an abstract, almost watery erosion. Unlit it is patinated matter; lit, it is crossed by silver and blue reflections.

ONOFF

Lucens Charme Luminoso

Arabesque · light ground

From the Rubelli archive, broad, sinuous arabesque ribbons: the most graphic line of the series. Lit, it is the ground that becomes light; the scrolls stay in shadow.

ONOFF

Lucens Charme Ombra

Arabesque · dark ground

The same design, reversed. Lit, it is the line that becomes light: threads of filigree on a ground of shadow.

Technical data

Where technology meets tradition.

Silk and precious yarns, interwoven with luminous fibres on the historic Rubelli looms, and the lighting technology developed by Texlum: a quality light, warm and soft, with no visible source, that seems to belong to the fabric itself.

Frequently asked questions7

How are the panels installed?

All in the same direction, with the LED bar on the same side. Before installation, protect them from dust and dirt and handle them with clean white gloves.

How are they switched on and dimmed?

With the constant-current driver specified by Texlum: a press of the button switches on and off, holding it adjusts the brightness. DALI-2 dimming is optional.

How much power do they use?

Very little: the 3000 K LEDs draw about 9 W per panel.

Can they be used outdoors?

No, indoors only, at operating temperatures between 10 and 35 °C. Store them in a cool, dry place.

How are they cleaned?

Dust them now and then with a dry, soft-bristled brush. No vacuum cleaners, liquids, stain removers or chemicals, and do not touch the back of the panel.

A panel does not light up or shows a dark area: what should I check?

That all the LED bars in the series are connected and that the luminous fibre bundles in that area are firmly clipped to the LED bar. If the problem persists, contact us.

What is the warranty?

2 years from delivery on panels and drivers. Slight irregularities are part of the handcrafted nature of the fabric; tampering with the back voids the warranty.

Eccentrica · The portable lamp

Eccentric, like Venetian architecture.

A portable LED lamp, inspired by the irregular, surprising architecture of Venice. The diffuser, lined with Rubelli fabric, turns light into a soft, textured glow that recalls ancient stone and sun-warmed plaster.

Technical data

Asymmetrical by nature.

Like the human body, the gondolas and the medieval palaces, Eccentrica is asymmetrical by nature. That is where its beauty lies.

Frequently asked questions7

What is special about Eccentrica's light?

A warm 2700 K light with CRI > 90, dimmable from 10 to 100% by touching the cap. The Rubelli fabric diffuser makes it soft and textured, as reassuring as candlelight.

Why does the cap pulse and blink?

It is how the lamp talks to you. With the light off it pulses while charging and stays on at full charge, as long as the cable is attached. While dimming it blinks once at minimum and twice at maximum. With low battery it blinks for several minutes before switching off automatically.

Can it be used outdoors?

It is IP43 certified, so it resists water spray, but under CE rules it is an indoor device. We suggest occasional outdoor use in a mild climate. Always charge and store it dry: the charger and cable must never get wet.

The lamp does not turn on: what should I check?

Put it on charge and check that the green LED near the magnetic plug is on, that the cable is firmly attached and that the battery switch is ON. While charging, the cap pulses. If the battery is very low, let it charge for at least 15 minutes before switching on. If the problem persists, see the user manual or write to us.

How do I clean and store it?

With a soft cloth, slightly damp with water and mild soap if needed. No alcohol, solvents or abrasive products. Before storing, dry it and set the battery switch to OFF; keep it in a dry, dust-free place.

Can it be repaired? What is the warranty?

Yes: the light source and battery can be replaced, only by Texlum or authorised staff using original parts. The warranty covers design and material defects for 2 years from delivery.

Is it a sustainable product?

It is a low-energy lamp, designed to be maintained and repaired and to last. The body is 100% recyclable aluminium; the battery and electronics must be disposed of according to local regulations.

Textum + lumen

Fabric and light, in the same thread.

The name weaves two Latin words: textum — at once text and textile — and lumen, light. From Venice, a city where light is living matter, we build works that make it visible. Our products are developed and handcrafted in Italy.
