AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Looking for the element capable of radically transforming your living space without taking up floor space?

The wall-mounted swivel lamp Aggregato, designed by the Maestro of Italian design Enzo Mari for Artemide in 1976, is not a simple light source: it is a genuine architectural sculpture in relief.

Thanks to its extendable telescopic arm and its theatrical conical shade with a textured matte finish, this work creates a magnetic and sophisticated focal point above any sofa, dining table, or study area. Placing it in your environment instantly elevates the interior with a piece of pure international design history.

In 1976, Enzo Mari — one of the brightest and most rigorous minds in 20th century industrial design — created the Aggregato system for Artemide. The revolutionary idea at the heart of the project was modularity: to create essential, technical, and interchangeable elements (clamps, counterweights, joints, arms, and diffusers) capable of combining into infinite configurations.

Enzo Mari’s work has been awarded five Compassi d’Oro over his career, and his pieces are included in the permanent collections of the world’s most prestigious museums, including MoMA in New York and the Triennale di Milano.

Founded in 1960 by Ernesto Gismondi, Artemide represents the pinnacle of Made in Italy lighting. Renowned for collaborating with the world’s greatest architects and for earning the sector’s highest international accolades, Artemide has made icons like Aggregato synonymous with technical innovation and timeless beauty.

The textured surface of the dark shade preserves its rich material grain, while the aluminum and metal joints and sliding mechanisms retain their original functionality.

An unmissable opportunity for collectors, interior designers, or art enthusiasts who wish to acquire a historic and increasingly rare piece on the design antique market.

The specimen offered presents itself in vintage condition. SEE PHOTO for the actual state of the product, as it is an integral part of the description.

Seller's Story

Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects. Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you. Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep: • A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco. We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths. • Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design. • We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves. • Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally. This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector. • Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction. • Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood. We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost. Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust. Happy bidding!
