Description from the seller

Sculptural Table Lamp "Organ Pipes" in Stainless Steel and Metacrylate - Space Age Design, 1970s
————————
Spectacular Space Age-inspired desk lamp dating from the 1970s, with a sculptural organ-pipes design. The central structure in polished stainless steel supports four vertically offset elements in height. Each element consists of a curved sheet of mirrored metal paired with a white satin-finish metacrylate/perspex diffuser, creating a refined play of reflections and 360-degree diffused light.
The visual effect evokes the monumental rhythmic shape of organ pipes, making it a true kinetic art and light object.
Attacco lampadine: 4 x E14 (compatible also with LED bulbs). Long cable with switch. Electrical system revised and fully functional.
—————-
Conditions: Very good for its era; the metal retains a brilliant luster and the metacrylate panels are crack-free; normal and light signs of aging consistent with the age.
The metal base shows some scratches and signs of time without compromising the beauty of the piece. Measurements: 53 cm x 30 cm, circular base 25 cm.
Fast and tracked shipping will be arranged, insured for the value reached at the end of the auction.
