About the Item
A luminous sculpture from Italy’s boldest design decade, this floor lamp by Poliarte is a confident expression of architectural form and light.
Design
Crafted in the 1970s, this tall floor lamp is built from a geometric arrangement of square glass modules alternating between warm amber and frosted crystal pulegoso glass. Each block is thick and weighty, with the pulegoso technique introducing minute bubbles within the glass, creating a clouded, milky texture that diffuses light with a gentle softness. The amber elements glow when lit, producing a golden warmth that contrasts with the cooler, frosted cubes.
Poliarte, founded in Verona in the 1960s, was known for its avant-garde approach to lighting design, favouring sculptural forms and artisanal glass techniques. The design of this lamp resembles a modernist tower—rhythmic, symmetrical, and unornamented. The stacked composition invites references to both Brutalist and Rationalist architecture, yet its materiality lends it a more sensuous edge. Internal bulbs are hidden within the core, allowing the glass itself to radiate. The design is both object and light source, decorative without decoration. Its rectangular footprint also allows it to function well in corners or along architectural lines.
A sculptural lighting piece that elevates the visual rhythm of a space with light, texture, and balance.
Condition
The condition is very good. The glass elements are intact with no chips or cracks visible. Some minor signs of wear to the metal base and wiring consistent with age and use.

Floorlamp Medium-Sized by Tobia Scarpa for Flos, Italy 1970s
By Tobia Scarpa, Flos
Located in Hellouw, NL
Tobia Scarpa is a near-legendary figure in the world of design. Renowned for a wide range of creations—many developed in collaboration with his wife, Afra—his work occupies a prominent place in the history of Italian design. It comes as no surprise that Italian lighting manufacturer Flos has frequently enlisted Scarpa’s visionary talent throughout his career.
Design
One striking example of his avant-garde style is the Tamburo lamp. True to its name—tamburo meaning "drum" in Italian—the lamp features a bold, round, abstract form set at a 60-degree angle on a distinctive stem. Green rings are attached to both sides of the green frame using Allen bolts, creating a design that feels both futuristic and evocative of the Memphis movement—bold, unconventional, and defiant of norms.
A matte plastic diffuser is fixed at the front by the dark green ring...
