Harvey Guzzini - Luigi Massoni - Table lamp - Aluminium, Chrome

Designed by Luigi Massoni for Harvey Guzzini in the 1970s, this Mushroom table lamp exemplifies the sculptural precision and material sophistication that defined the Italian space-age aesthetic. The lamp combines a broad brushed aluminum dome shade with a polished chrome and aluminum trumpet base, resulting in a perfectly balanced and harmonious silhouette. Inside, a white-painted metal diffuser softens the light, producing a warm and even radiance that enhances both the geometry and material texture of the piece. An especially refined detail of this model is its dual-phase switch system, allowing the user to control the lighting in stages — either illuminating the inner bulbs, the upper dome bulb, or both simultaneously. This feature gives the lamp remarkable versatility, transforming the ambience from subtle atmospheric glow to full illumination. Massoni’s design distills Guzzini’s design philosophy: functional innovation expressed through elegant, tactile forms. The interplay of satin aluminum, chrome, and diffused light embodies the brand’s pursuit of futuristic domestic elegance. A quintessential Italian modernist icon, the Mushroom lamp remains one of Harvey Guzzini’s most celebrated creations, prized for its sculptural clarity and enduring visual harmony.
