20th Century Luigi Caccia Dominioni Floor Lamp model LTE5 Imbuto for Azucena 50s

About the Item

Founded in 1947 by Luigi Caccia Dominioni, Ignazio Gardella, and Corrado Corradi Dell'Acqua, the Italian brand Azucena has always stood out for its collections that combine formal elegance, understated luxury, pure aesthetics, and craftsmanship. The brand, which the architects call Azucena after the name of the gypsy from the theatrical opera Il Trovatore, is created both to collect some of their furniture designs for use in furnishing the buildings they designed and, conversely, to be able to produce individually some furniture that is part of furniture series they designed. Here the famous Floor Lamp model LTE5 so called "Imbuto": the name of this lamp also very clearly explains the inspiration from which the shape originated: a funnel. However, in this object of the funnel only the name remains. The lampshade is a metal cone that extends toward each other thanks to a thin stem from which a wide halo of light comes out. Originally the design also had another name, namely "flûte." This shows that Luigi Caccia Dominioni's ideas came from simple objects but also from rarer instruments. The humble funnel meets the sophisticated flûte, an instrument that collects and guides water alongside another that holds wine and champagne, one functional and one exceptional, one made of plastic or metal and one of crystal: this was Caccia Dominioni's world, in which the exceptionality of everyday life and the most special moments coexisted. With its essentiality and functionality, the Imbuto lamp still proves to be a clean and decisive object, which can disappear or become the protagonist of a room, accompanying a contemporary style or a traditional environment. And it doesn't matter if the room is large or small, if you need to illuminate something or simply create a mood, because Imbuto will always be a discreet protagonist of our domestic landscape. The light can be rewired for US standards upon request.
