Item Description
An exceptional and sculptural table or floor lamp, made in Italy circa 1968, distinguished by its bold use of red Lucite and a luminous Murano glass sphere. Produced in a very limited edition, this piece stands as a striking example of late-1960s Italian design, where experimentation with new materials met refined craftsmanship. Reminiscent of Gae Aulenti’s iconic King Sun lamp, the design allows light to be transmitted beautifully through the red acrylic supports, creating depth, warmth, and a dramatic visual effect. The clear Murano glass sphere acts as the focal point, diffusing light softly while contrasting elegantly with the transparent, architectural Lucite structure. Both functional and highly decorative, the lamp can be used as either a table or floor lamp, making it a versatile statement piece. Its vibrant color, sculptural presence, and exceptional light quality make it ideal for collectors of rare Italian design and for interiors seeking a bold yet sophisticated accent.
