Erco Floor Lamp Designed by Ettore Sottsass

About the Item

Erco floor lamp, designed by Ettore Sottsass in 1973. A wonderful example of the pre-postmodern lighting is this rare floor lamp, designed by ettore Sottsass for Erco. The design already shows various of Sottsass formal and esthetic principals towards the design of objects, using „simple“ geometric forms that fuse in the shape of the lamps base, head & screen. Albeit it also shows deep engineering qualities, esspecially in the rotateable joints. It is perfectly usefull and yet formally an early artifact designed by one of the most influential pioneers, intellectuals and curators of postmodern esthetics in industrial design and art. The lamp is in used but good to very good condition showing mostly minor scratches and wear. . The plug is for European standard and you may have to change it according to your standard or use a adapter. The lamp has a E27 socket for standard 100 Watts bulbs.
