AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pipistrello has been produced by Martinelli Luce for 50 years and is still today an icon of Italian design.
The Pipistrello lamp was designed by Gae Aulenti in 1965, then produced and still in production by Martinelli Luce.
It is a table lamp characterized by the elusive shape of the conical base that extends upward, widening into the ribs of the diffuser, resembling the spread wings of a bat.
The lamp consists of an opaline methacrylate diffuser, a telescopic metal lamp body, and a yellow painted metal base.
The light source is LED and the brightness can be adjusted using a switch located on the power cable.
Today, Pipistrello is exhibited at the MOMA in New York.
The lamp is shipped with original packaging, tracked and insured delivery. Attention! After purchase, please kindly send your national ID code or VAT number via Catawiki messaging to complete the invoice. Thank you very much.
