AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Selene lamp is an iconic Italian Space Age table lamp, designed by Alfredo Bianchi (also often cited as Alberto) and produced in the 1960s and 1970s by the Milan-based company ABM (Alfredo Bianchi Milano), later known as Bilumen.
The distinctive feature of this design piece is its adjustable inner spherical diffuser, which rotates 360° via a black knob on top. This mechanism lets you direct the beam of light, creating an “eclipse” effect to adjust the light intensity as desired.
