AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Iconic table or desk lamp model "Ring" (A400), designed by the celebrated designer Bruno Gecchelin in 1979 and produced in Italy by the historic and prestigious company Arteluce (originally founded by Gino Sarfatti, a worldwide reference in master lighting design).
The piece represents a masterpiece of Italian industrial design spanning the late 70s and early 80s, characterized by a strong postmodern and functional aesthetic.
Design and Structure: The lamp stands out for its sculptural and extremely clean architecture, composed of a solid, weighted metal base, a slender arm, and an adjustable reflector.
Light Regulation (Dimmer): The model is equipped with a practical adjustment system that allows you to manage and modulate the light intensity, perfectly adapting it to every need, whether for ambient lighting or a brighter work light.
The "Ring" Detail: The circular junction element (from which the series takes its name) allows perfect adjustment and orientability of the light beam, combining a strong graphic impact with refined mechanical engineering.
Marking and Authenticity: On the body of the lamp is clearly embossed the original factory brand in relief: "Arteluce RING A 400 DESIGN REGISTERED MADE IN ITALY" (as widely documented in photos).
Reference Bibliography: The model is listed and published in the main sector catalogs, including the Italian Design Repertoire 1950-2000 by Giuliana Gramigna (p. 269).
Conditions:
In generally good preserved condition and perfectly working (electrical system tested). It shows the normal patina of time and light superficial signs of use consistent with the era, which attest to its vintage authenticity without compromising its extraordinary aesthetic beauty.
A piece not to be missed for modern memorabilia collectors, lovers of historical Italian design and enthusiasts of the great names in illumination.
