Description from the seller

A table lamp with a strong sculptural presence, designed and produced by Vit Kellj in Italy in the 1970s, fully attributable to the Mid-Century Modern language with openings toward a timeless industrial aesthetic.
The structure features a round base and a shaped stem in nickel-plated metal, with soft yet decisive lines that confer balance and solidity to the whole. The original cylindrical shade in white acrylic, edged in metal, diffuses a uniform and enveloping light, creating a refined contrast with dark, tactile environments.
Placed in a contemporary industrial context, among concrete surfaces, metal, and dark walls, the lamp becomes a focal point: an iconic object capable of dialoguing with minimalist interiors, urban lofts, or spaces with a strong character, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow.
Complete with the “Vit Kellj” label affixed to the base, a testament to the piece’s authenticity. A design object that combines functionality, industrial elegance, and collectible value, perfect for those seeking an iconic and timeless furnishing element.

Measurements:
• Total height: 64 cm
• Base diameter: 24 cm
• Depth / shade diameter: 41 cm
• Shade height: 27 cm
