Description from the seller

Italian design table lighter attributed to Felice Antonio Botta, made in Florence and datable to the 1970s / early 1980s.

The object features an architectural structure made of solid plexiglass/acrylic, crafted with faceted surfaces and sharp cuts, enclosing an inner cylindrical body in chrome-plated metal. The upper mechanism, also made of metal, is harmoniously integrated into the overall design, giving the object a strong sculptural character.

The design fully reflects the language of Italian modernism post Space-Age, typical of Florence's production between the 1970s and 1980s, with a balance between function and aesthetic value.
The original brand mark 'feliceantonio botta – florence / made in italy' is visible on the body of the object.

Good aesthetic conditions, with slight signs of aging compatible with the age and use.
The operation has not been tested and is not guaranteed; the item is offered as a collectible and design piece.

An elegant and spectacular table lighter, ideal for collectors of 20th-century Italian design or as a decorative object.
