AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Isao Hosoe per Valenti – Hebi
Iconic flexible Hebi lamp, designed by Japanese designer Isao Hosoe for Valenti, here offered in the particularly vibrant yellow version.
One of Hosoe's most recognizable designs, characterized by the long flexible body coated in thermoplastic material, which allows the lamp to be shaped and aimed freely, and by the adjustable metal reflector.
The specimen preserves an element particularly interesting for collectors: it is complete with the original clamp for fixing to the edge of a desk and the wall-mount bracket, allowing several usage configurations.
The original marks of the manufacturer Valenti are present in several points of the lamp, including the rubber terminal of the shaft, the yellow sheath, the plug, and the clamp, as documented in the photographs.
