About the Item

This Italian floor lamp is very compelling, it is stylish, whimsy, but it is also material and craft bound. Like their international counterparts, mid-century Italian designers prized the marriage of form and function, and the result was an immediately recognizable look. In Italy, the evolution of lighting design developed side by side with the post-war recovery. Designer lamps became more accessible, and the aesthetic and materials more experimental. This floor lamp’s design shows this interesting and unique era’s marks in its clever solutions and use of materials. The body is composed of three, twisted metal tubes resting on, and ending in rings. Despite the material, the composition looks effortlessly smooth and organic. The top ring holds the half sphere, unattached lampshade that can be therefore freely moved around to create the ideal look and to direct the light. The lacquered white shade stands out against the black body, functioning as the focal point of the design. The hanging textile cable is twisted, a subtle but successful detail to add more visual interest. Overall, the distinctive design of this floor lamp represents Italian mid-century modernism in its purest form, both in terms of aesthetics and functionality. The marriage of straight and round lines and versatile materials and shapes in perfect harmony truly shows the designer’s skill. This lamp has many qualities that make it ideal to blend a stroke of modernity to any space, serving both a functional and a purely aesthetic role. Condition: In good vintage condition.
