AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Trilly design table lamp, designed by Joe Martinì for the Italian manufacturer Penta. This iconic design from the 1970s is a fine example of the playful and sculptural vocabulary that characterizes Italian design from that period.

The lampshade consists of five individual, gracefully curved elements in satin-colored polycarbonate, which together create an organic, flower-like form around the central light source. The openings between the elements allow for a warm, diffuse light and a special play of shadows and glow, making the lamp both functional and decorative.

The shade is carried by a slender metal stem on a round metal base, which forms an elegant contrast with the organic shaping of the shade. Thanks to its timeless look, this lamp is a real focal point in both modern and vintage interiors.
