Standing floor lamp with adjustable arm, made of brass and glass, originating from the Netherlands, in the Italian mid‑century design style inspired by Stilnovo/Arredoluce, circa 1955–1965, with one fitting and a conical shade.
Description from the seller
Standing floor lamp with adjustable arm, attributed to Italian design in the style of Stilnovo / Arredoluce.
Dating
Around the years 1955–1965 (mid-century modern period).
Explanation of dating & style
The long slender metal arm, the minimalist counterweight, the functional adjustability, and the conical shade are typical of post-war Italian design. During this period, the emphasis was on elegance, technique, and flexible lighting – features strongly associated with designers and manufacturers like Stilnovo and Arredoluce.
An exceptionally elegant standing dimmer lamp from Italian modernism, designed with attention to both functionality and aesthetics. The long, slender arm and refined mechanism ensure that the light falls exactly where desired, while the understated metal finish gives a timeless appearance.
The lamp emits a warm, atmospheric light and is perfectly suited next to an armchair or sofa, but also looks stunning in a modern interior or design collection. The design breathes the characteristic mid-century Italian elegance, where technology and beauty seamlessly come together.
A rare and stylish object for enthusiasts of authentic design from the 1950s and 1960s.
