Brass Capacio Floor Lamp by Fulvio Ferrari for Solka B, 1972

About the Item

Very rare floor lamp Capacio designed by Fulvio Ferrari for his own company Solka B. Capacio was produced in two versions: vitrified brass and chromed steel. This piece is in vitrified brass. Capacio was the second lamp Fulvio Ferrari ever designed. For this model Ferrari used already existing components which were used in other industries, like the pincers that are used in chemical laboratories. The lamp is in fairly good vintage condition.
