Description from the seller
Elegant clamp table lamp dating from the 1950s/60s, characterized by an essential and functional design typical of Italian post-war modern design.
Made of metal with a burnished brass finish, it features an original semicylindrical shade adjustable via a side screw, ideal for directing the light beam during reading or work. The mounting is via a sturdy metal clamp, perfect for desks, drawing tables, workbenches or bookcases.
The electrical system is original to the period, complete with switch and a 3-pole plug. The lamp has been tested and is fully functional; it comes with a bulb.
A piece with strong aesthetic impact, ideal for vintage lighting collectors, enthusiasts of industrial design and mid-century modernism, or as a furnishing element in studios, offices, bookshops and environments in Mid-Century style.
Conditions
In excellent vintage condition, with natural patina of age and light signs of use consistent with its age. Solid structure, efficient clamp and functioning orientation mechanism. Original electrical system functioning; for prolonged daily use a check by a qualified technician is recommended.
