AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The design is a direct reference to Vico Magistretti’s iconic Eclisse lamp (1965) and the Italian Space Age movement. The typological core is its interactive, mechanical nature: an adjustable chrome shield rotates within the lacquered red outer sphere, allowing the user to manually "eclipse" the light source and regulate the intensity from a direct glow to an indirect, ambient backlight.

The contrast between the vibrant pop-art red shell, the industrial chrome base with its characteristic cutout, and the white glass diffuser embodies the material experimentation of late 1960s radical design. The sphere-on-cylinder geometry emphasizes a functionalist yet playful aesthetic typical of period manufacturers like Artemide.

Specifications:

Style: Space Age / Italian Radical Design.

Material: Genuine glass (diffuser globe), lacquered and chromed metal.

Socket: E27. Standard EU contact.

Dimensions: 25 x 22 cm.

Delivery: Insured shipping.
