AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A luminous icon of design, the Model 1853 table lamp was born in 1954 from the ingenuity of the renowned glassmaker and Artistic Director of Fontana Arte, Max Ingrand. This cult object is entirely crafted from satin-finished blown glass in white, a choice that enhances its aesthetic grace and ensures a warm, delicate light emission. Its distinctive feature lies in its innovative double switch system, which allows the lamp to be separately illuminated in the spherical base and the conical shade, thus enabling versatile modulation of the lighting atmosphere.
A high-quality piece with a strong aesthetic impact, perfect for collectors and lovers of Italian design.
Size: approximately 78x46x46 cm.
Good overall preservation conditions, slight material defects on the structure due to normal wear over time, all visible in the photographs. Probable light scratches on the glass parts and minor chipping, all defects are visible in the photographs.
Observe carefully the photographs as they are an integral part of the description.
Tracked shipment including secure packaging, any customs duties and taxes will be borne by the buyer. Due to fragility, it will be shipped on a pallet. Available for local pickup.
