Giancarlo Mattioli ‘MT’ lamp for Sirrah, 1969

About the Item

Stunning MT Floor or Table Lamp by Giancarlo Mattioli for Sirrah, Italy, 1969 A rare and sculptural MT floor or table lamp, designed by Giancarlo Mattioli for Sirrah in 1969. This striking piece features lacquered aluminum lamellae that create luxurious, warm shadow patterns when illuminated, giving the lamp both architectural presence and atmospheric depth. It is topped with a lacquered aluminum dome shade, completing its refined, modernist profile. Mattioli’s design balances minimalist rigor with poetic lighting effects, making it an exceptional example of Italian postwar design. Giancarlo Mattioli (b. 1933, Florence) was a visionary Italian architect and designer, celebrated for his role in shaping mid-century modernism. He is perhaps best known internationally for the iconic Nesso lamp (1967), created for Artemide—a landmark in 20th-century lighting design and now part of the permanent collection at MoMA in New York. This MT lamp is not only a rare collector’s item but also a timeless statement piece that brings both form and function to any interior. Sirrah, active especially in the 1960s to 1980s, was a key platform for avant-garde Italian designers such as Mario Arnaboldi, Carlo Forcolini, and Giancarlo Mattioli. The MT lamp is now a rare vintage collectible, appreciated for its architectural design language and scarcity.
