This iconic chrome-plated metal table lamp features a sleek vertical rod supporting two cylindrical arms at different heights. At the top of each arm, there is a metal sphere housing the light source. The spheres rotate 360° in all directions, allowing for highly customizable lighting. The sturdy square base ensures both stability and functionality. Characterized by its elegant and minimalist design, this lamp is crafted from high-quality materials and finished with a refined chrome plating. It was produced between 1975 and 1980 in a workshop in Monza (Lombardy, Italy), where skilled artisans drew inspiration from the style of designer Goffredo Reggiani. Their goal was to create a compact, practical, and linear lighting piece that embraced the design trends of the time. The result is a lamp with a timeless originality. It is well documented that architect Goffredo Reggiani collaborated with highly skilled Lombard artisans renowned for their craftsmanship and use of premium materials. His designs were primarily intended for the refined apartments of Milan’s wealthy bourgeoisie. Given its exceptional quality, attention to detail, and fine finishes, this lamp was most likely created by those same master artisans. The prolific and influential Italian designer Goffredo Reggiani (1929-2004) founded his company in Monza in 1957. He personally designed most of his lamps, frequently incorporating chrome-plated metal and steel to achieve a distinctive Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic. Reggiani’s chrome lamps are known for their clean lines and smooth curves, providing brilliant and evenly diffused lighting. Over time, his designs have become coveted collector’s items, admired for their aesthetic appeal and outstanding craftsmanship. The style of this lamp belongs to the "Space Age" movement, an aesthetic trend that emerged at the dawn of the space era, often linked to the launch of Sputnik in October 1957. Space Age design captured society’s optimism and confidence in technological advancements during the 1950s and 1960s. One of the key characteristics of this style is the predominant use of spherical shapes, frequently seen in decorative elements and lighting designs. When multiple spheres are interconnected, they explicitly evoke the structure of an atom. This era’s design evolved into various styles and movements, embracing rounded forms, expressive freedom, fluidity, and simplicity. Lamps from this period are defined by their geometric shapes, marking a definitive break from the rationalist tradition. The materials used are typically cool-toned, reflective, and metallic. Our lamp, with its simple yet sophisticated design, embodies ingenuity, innovation, and practicality. It is designed to provide adaptable lighting based on individual needs. Thanks to its timeless elegance, it seamlessly integrates into any living space. The lamp is in good condition. The electrical system is functional, but the wiring follows the European standard. Voltage compatibility in other countries should always be checked by a qualified electrician before use. Dimensions: Width: 27 cm Depth: 14 cm Height: 52 cm.
