Table Lamp / Space Age Spotlight "Eyeball" – Attributed to Goffredo Reggiani – Italy, 1970s

Iconic adjustable desk lamp model "Eyeball" (also known as "Occhio di Bue"), a perfect example of Italian Space Age style from the 1970s and commonly attributed to the renowned Goffredo Reggiani manufacture.

Characterized by the striking color contrast between the red lacquered metal housing and the chromed metal finish, this lamp represents a classic piece with a strong visual impact for vintage design enthusiasts.

Technical and Design Details:

Swiveling spherical diffuser: Angled orientation on the horizontal axis via a forked chromed metal support (gimbal). The dome features a chromed front ring and rear vents for heat ventilation.

Base & Switch: Original circular base with an integrated recessed toggle switch on the top.

Preservation of the Wiring: Preserves the original vintage wiring and electrical components (cable, strain relief, and two-pole plug).

Marks and Signs of Time: Under the base there is the circular impression left by the original manufacturer’s adhesive sticker (lost over time, as is often the case with these pieces).

Condition:
The item is in good vintage condition and functioning. It shows light and natural signs of aging, such as very small scratches on the red lacquer and typical oxidation spots on the chrome, which certify its authenticity and era.
