AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Italian design table lamp in opal glass and aluminum – 1970s
Fascinating table lamp of Italian manufacture, characterized by a minimalist and sculptural design that recalls the best modernist design of the second half of the 20th century.
The diffuser, made of thick satin opal glass, spreads a soft and uniform light, highlighting the purity of the geometric shapes. The base is composed of turned aluminum with a red-lacquered insert, while the particular glass mounting system using three metal pins represents an interesting constructive solution that gives the lamp a marked industrial character.
The ensemble expresses a refined design language, typical of Italian production in the seventies, in which the contrast between the lightness of opal glass and the solidity of the metals creates an object with a strong aesthetic impact.
The lamp is fully functional and produces a warm, diffuse light, ideal both as ambient lighting and as a collectible piece.
Materials
* Satinated opal glass
* Aluminum
* Painted steel
Conditions
In good overall condition, with normal and minor signs of age consistent with its age. Glass intact, without breakage or cracks. Wiring working.
Dimensions
* Height: 26 cm
* Maximum diameter: 16 cm
An object of notable build quality and timeless design, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of Italian design of the 20th century.
