Floor Lamp in Brass and Steel, by Dominici, Mid-Century Brazilian Design Modern

About the Item

This exquisite floor lamp, emanating from the celebrated workshops of Dominici, is a testament to the harmonious blend of elegance and industrial robustness that defines high-quality Brazilian lighting design. Crafted by the renowned Enrico Furio, an Italian maestro who infused Brazilian design with his distinctive mid-century modern sensibilities, the lamp stands as a beacon of form and function in unison. Rising from the ground with an industrial steel stem, the lamp extends upward, its silhouette tapering with a refined grace that alludes to both strength and delicacy. The base of the lamp is substantial, offering a firm foundation that speaks to its enduring stability. It’s this juxtaposition of the slender stem with the solid base that imbues the lamp with a balanced poise. Adorning the lamp’s ascendant form is a singular brass accent—the spherical lampshade—a golden orb that captures and diffuses light with a warm luminescence. The lampshade's polished surface, a reflective sphere of luxury, contrasts delightfully with the subdued matte of the steel. Connected by a minimalist arm, this shade can pivot, directing illumination with precision, further underscoring the lamp's utilitarian elegance. Dual light points are ingeniously integrated into the lamp’s design: one nestled within the conical steel, casting a focused beam, and the other within the cylindrical brass shade, offering a softer glow. This duality of light sources adds both versatility and a layered lighting effect, enhancing the lamp’s functional appeal. Enrico Furio’s work with Dominici is characterized by a deep appreciation for materiality and form. His designs, including this lamp, are renowned for their clean lines and the thoughtful use of metals such as aluminum and brass, which interact with light in dynamic ways. Furio’s legacy in Brazilian design history is marked by this commitment to innovation and impeccable craftsmanship. In essence, this Dominici floor lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a sculptural piece that embodies the ethos of an era where design was an exploration of simplicity and sophistication. It is designed not only to illuminate a room but to enhance it, to offer a statement of timeless design that resonates as much today as it did in the heyday of Furio’s creative period.
