Meta ochre by David Pompa is a timeless pendant lamp made from Travertino and copper.

Meta ochre’s both materials are formed into cylindrical shapes emphasize a smooth yet sharp

aesthetics with a monochromatic palette of tones.

A sculpture on its own and a light architecture in a cluster of many. Ochre toned nuances of Meta

match the warm light cone that strikes the surface below.

Quarried in Puebla, Mexico, Travertino is a natural stone with a recognizable ochre tone, containing mineral inclusions in white, light and dark gray.

Extremely rich in textures, its patterns are elegant and refined.

David Pompa: “The strong visual contrast between materials creates a new composition with a Mexican flavor. An exquisite and sophisticated match adding life to neutral spaces,

complementing an earth palette. This is the essence of the ochre Meta”
