The Story of Light Auction

Pipistrello has been produced by Martinelli Luce for 50 years and is still today an icon of Italian design.
The Pipistrello lamp was designed by Gae Aulenti in 1965, then manufactured and still in production by Martinelli Luce.
It is a table lamp characterized by the elusive shape of the conical base that rises upward and widens into the ridges of the diffuser, like the wings of a bat.
The lamp consists of an opal methacrylate diffuser, a telescopic metal lamp body, and a black-painted metal base.
The light source is provided by four included LED E14 bulbs and it is possible to switch the lamp on and off via a switch on the power cord.
Today Pipistrello is exhibited at MoMA in New York.
THE LAMP IS SHIPPED WITH ORIGINAL PACKAGING, TRACKED AND INSURED. Attention! After purchasing, please kindly send via Catawiki messaging your national ID code or VAT number to complete the invoice. Thank you very much.

La lampada è composta dal diffusore in metacrilato opalino, da un corpo lampada telescopico in metallo e da una base in metallo verniciato nero.
La fonte luminosa è data da quattro lampadine Led E14 incluse ed è possibile accendere e spegnere la lampada tramite interruttore posto sul cavo d'alimentazione.
