About the Item
This 1980s Italian table lamp is a unique example of high-end postmodern design, characterized by its sharp lines and luxurious materials. The lamp’s body is constructed from four vertical panels of tortoiseshell-patterned Lucite, each boasting a rich, deep brown hue with golden undertones that evoke the natural texture of tortoise shell. These panels are seamlessly set within a polished silver-plated frame, which provides structural support and a mirror-like finish that enhances its reflective quality.
The lamp’s shape is angular and sculptural, with a tall, rectangular silhouette that adds an architectural element to its aesthetic. The silver-plated frame features beveled edges, lending a refined, contemporary appearance. The tortoiseshell Lucite panels contrast beautifully with the silver, offering a sense of warmth and depth to the overall design.
The top of the lamp transitions into a streamlined neck, which supports the light fixture. This fixture is minimal and utilitarian, staying true to the understated elegance of the piece. The lamp is versatile in style, blending well with modern, Art Deco-inspired, or even eclectic interiors. Its materials—silver plate and Lucite—were hallmarks of Italian design in the 1980s, reflecting a focus on opulence, craftsmanship, and cutting-edge innovation.
This lamp serves as a bold statement piece, whether placed on a side table, console, or desk, and is both a functional light source and a work of art. It's in working order and in vey good conditions overall.
