AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Modern Floor Lamp - 1980s Design
This elegant floor lamp represents a classic example of 1980s minimalist design, characterized by a slender structure and refined indirect lighting [1, 7].
Origin: [1, 12]. The design is traceable to the Milanese school of modernism, with similar models often attributed to high-quality productions such as Mazzega.
Dating: Circa 1980-1989 [1, 7, 11].
Aesthetic and Technical Characteristics:
Structure: Double slender rod in black enameled metal that gives a sense of dynamism and visual lightness [1, 7].
Diffuser: Disk-shaped head (or "Saturn") with an internal reflector, designed to project a soft light upward (zenithal illumination) [1, 18].
Base: Solid circular base coordinated in black metal to ensure stability [1, 9].
Functionality: Typically equipped with a dimmer along the cord to regulate light intensity, ideal for creating soft atmospheres [7, 8].
Measurements:
Height: About 185 cm [1, 5, 15].
Diffuser diameter: About 50 cm [1].
Base diameter: About 30 cm [5, 9].
