About the Item

Mid-Century Modern hand-crafted table lamps, Italy, 1970s. Composed of turned pine wood bases with varnished finish, and lampshades made of a metal structure covered with Cocoon resin, offering a soft and warm light effect through this versatile material. Gold brass details. Hollywood Regency, Space Age and Brutalist styles, with a certain Memphis air. For any type of interiors. Artisanal manufacture. The cocoon material was invented after World War II to protect unarmed warships and other unprotected items. It is made of powdered plastic and fiberglass. Arturo Eisenkeil imported this material to Italy, with which he made a multitude of decorative lamps and marketed them. For one E14 bulb each piece. Totally renewed electrical installation and fully operational. LED compatible. Wooden bases in good condition, with some deffects visible in photos. Cocoon resin lampshades in perfect condition. Note: We always try to the fullest to respect and preserve as much as possible all the original elements of each piece (wiring, lampshade, finishes...) so as not to alter the original aesthetics and so that they can continue to have another life with their intact soul. That is why sometimes certain elements can present wear and tear, but they are part of the life of each piece, always providing a very pleasant patina.
