Set of two "Febo" floor lamps designed by Roberto Pamio and Renato Toso for Leucos - scarcely seen design due to its limited production. (ca. 1970s, Italy).
The floor lamp, the most impressive design of the "Febo" series, is composed of a black Murano glass dome shade with a banding of red, yellow, and transparent 'reeds' with a brass triple socket and stem, all supported by a conical Verona Marble base.
These visually and compositionally disparate materials have been successfully fused together to create a truly original design marrying form and function - the heft of the base provides stability while its peach tones and veined texture add a nice visual contrast to both brass and black glass.
The shades can be removed and tilted to diffuse the light accordingly.
Excellent, vintage condition - the brass stems have been polished, and the shades are nearly perfect sans two very light scuffs to one of the shades. The marble has no imperfections; the white lines and patches are naturally occurring within the stone.
Original Italian sockets, wiring, and plug (plug will be changed for US use, unless otherwise requested).
Each lamp takes three E14 bulbs - we are using three 30 Watt equivalent LED bulbs (warm/soft light bulbs used in the shorter lamp, daylight bulbs used in the taller for demonstration).
One of the shades retains the manufacturer's label, and both brass sockets are branded "Leucos."
The listing is for both floor lamps - one shorter than the other, but both shades are roughly the same size (due to the handblown nature of the shades, there are slight size disparities).

Shorter: H: 50.5" x Diameter: 11.75" (shade height is 7.5")
