About the Item

A vintage 20th Century "Serpente" (snake) floor lamp, designed by Elio Martinelli and produced by Martinelli Luce around 1965. This particular piece is one of the first editions, making it a coveted item for collectors and enthusiasts of mid-century modern decor. The lamp's serpentine or snake-like form is a perfect embodiment of the era's fascination with organic shapes and innovative materials. Its lacquered metal structure not only provides a sleek, polished aesthetic but also ensures durability and stability. The opaline methacrylate lampshade adds to its distinctive charm, diffusing light softly and evenly to create an inviting ambiance. Adding to its functionality, the Serpente floor lamp features a swivel mechanism that allows the lamp to be turned 360 degrees, providing versatile lighting solutions. Whether used as a focused reading light or as a broader floor lamp to illuminate an entire room, this feature enhances its practicality while maintaining its sculptural beauty. The combination of these materials results in a striking contrast between the smooth, reflective surface of the metal and the gentle, translucent glow of the shade. The Serpente floor lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a sculptural work of art that adds a touch of sophistication and elegance to any interior space. Its design continues to inspire and captivate, reinforcing its status as a quintessential example of Italian design excellence. Publications: C. e P. Fiel, "1000 Lights", vol.
