AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bruno Munari, 1964. Floor lamp. Diffuser in white tubular elastic mesh, frame in painted steel.
The form of the lamp ‘Falkland’ arises from the tension of a filanca tube and the weight of several metal rings: it is an spontaneous form, generated solely by the tension of the internal forces that compose it.
Seven metal rings of different diameters, a white filanca tube, a single bulb and an aluminum reflector that follows the curves of the fabric.
This lamp corresponds more than others to the requirements that Munari indicates as indispensable for proper design: simplicity, efficiency, minimal storage footprint and maximal formal yield.
It arises from the blend of objects very distant from one another, such as fishing nets, women's stockings and Oriental paper lamps.
Over a height of more than one meter and sixty, it packs into the packaging in just a few centimeters of space; light filters through the tube, using the texture of the fabric to create a characteristic effect of soft and diffused luminosity.
After purchasing, please kindly send via Catawiki messaging your national ID code or VAT number to complete the invoice. Infinite thanks

shipments will resume after August 22.
