AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Description of the object
The Telegono lamp, a rare desk version with a pencil holder, designed by Vico Magistretti in 1968, is an icon of 1960s Italian design. Originally produced by Artemide, this table lamp stands out for its unique, sculptural form. It features an adjustable diffuser made of opaline plastic that allows the light to be directed in various directions. The base is cylindrical and supports a curved arm on which the diffuser is mounted, available in vivid colors such as white, orange, and green, typical of that era. The Telegono embodies Magistretti's functional minimalism, with a simple yet impactful structure that emphasizes both aesthetics and the versatility of light.

Working, but the electrical system needs to be reviewed.
