de Majo - Lamp - Metal, Glass, Chrome

Up for auction is a stunning and iconic floor lamp, model “Polipo,” attributed to the renowned De Maio manufactory, a true symbol of Space Age design spanning the 1970s and 1980s. This unique piece of furniture combines vibrant aesthetics with exceptional functionality, immediately becoming the focal point of any room in which it is placed.

The lamp stands out for its sturdy structure in polished chrome steel, which still today maintains an impeccable shine. From the central column extend five flexible arms (gooseneck model) that evoke the tentacles of an octopus. This feature allows the light beams to be oriented in a completely customizable way, transforming the object into a true dynamic luminous sculpture.
The real strength lies in the five opal satin glass bell-shaped diffusers. Each glass piece features a different color — white, green, red, blue, and yellow — creating a striking rainbow effect. Once lit, the lamp casts a soft, welcoming light that can warm the atmosphere and highlight the details of the surrounding furnishings.

The item is in excellent vintage condition. The glass is perfectly intact, free of chips or hairline cracks, and the chrome frame shows only very slight signs of aging that attest to its authenticity. The wiring is original and fully functional. With a maximum height that can approach 200 cm depending on the curvature of the arms, this lamp represents an unmissable opportunity for collectors and lovers of author-design who are looking for an eclectic piece with a strong visual impact.
