AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Carlo Forcolini for Artemide – Set of four wall lamps “Icaro”, Italy, design 1984.
Icaro is one of the most representative lamps of Italian postmodern design of the 1980s: designed by Carlo Forcolini and produced by Artemide, it takes its name from the myth of Icarus. The cylindrical metal structure supports a triangular cut and ground glass plate, with the characteristic aquamarine edge, and a curved perforated aluminum shade that evokes a wing: the light, directed upward, illuminates the glass and creates on the wall a dramatic play of reflections and shadows.
A complete set of four identical pieces, rare to find: ideal for a hallway, living room or bedroom, or to be split into two pairs.
Conditions: good and working, as visible in the photos with the lamps lit. Normal signs of use and aging on the metal parts and on the glass, consistent with the age. Original electrical system: a check is recommended before installation. One of the wall lamps has chipped glass; see carefully the photos, part of the description.
