Pair of Kartell "Take" Table Lamps by Ferruccio Laviani - Red Elevate your interior with this iconic pair of Take table lamps, a masterpiece of contemporary Italian design created by the renowned Ferruccio Laviani for Kartell. Born from the poetic idea of "two halves of an apple" joined together, the Take lamp is a brilliant reinterpretation of the classic bedside abat-jour. Its structure is formed by the conjoining of two flat, symmetrical polycarbonate sheets that create a 3D volume, giving the lamp its unmistakable and curious silhouette. The true magic happens when you turn them on: the internal pleated finish of the shade transforms the light into a play of enchanting, multifaceted reflections, similar to rays passing through a prism. In this timeless Crystal (Cristallo) version, the transparent polycarbonate offers a pure and luminous aesthetic, making them perfect for a modern bedroom, a minimalist living room, or a professional studio. A timeless icon of the Kartell collection, these lamps are not just light sources, but a celebration of the evolution of plastic into a noble and versatile material.
