Italian Curved Glass and Brass Table Lamp by Fontana Arte (Attr.), Italy 1960s
-
Description
This one-of-a-kind table lamp is a delightfully distinctive model, with an immediately recognizable look. The mid-century period was fueled by the development of new materials and technology with stunning results, as seen in this lamp’s design. This piece possesses a futuristic impression that is proof of the era’s creative overflow.
Many Italian designers’ works developed from a tension between usability and style, resulting in outstanding pieces like this table lamp. The architectural precision and trademark Italian elegance can be traced throughout the rounded body and brass rectangular frame. The popularity of brass in the mid-century era can be attributed to its warm and inviting golden hue, which adds warmth to the style's modern aesthetic. Next to the brass, the smoked glass shade stands out with its elongeted shape that resembles a pressed sphere and has a generous size. The smoked effect assures that even when the light is off, the shade has an interesting appearance. Furthermore, thanks to the arrangement of the brass frame and the shade, this piece diffuses the light evenly and brightens the brass beautifully, creating a cosy, warm visual effect. With a combination of interesting material choices and design, this lamp has an innovative, modern look that highlights the piece’s purpose, being just as much a work of art as it is a utilitarian piece.
Adding illumination to a living space with this stylish table lamp will not only improve the ambience, it will also bring a piece of design history to the space. Apart from the aesthetics, the quality of this model is also true to its mid-century modern heritage.
