About the Item

Midcentury amazing floor lsamp un Bamboo, rattan and fabric in the style of Franco Albini. Made in Italy in the 1960s. A beautiful floor lamp that is perfectly working but most of all, it provides an amazing visual impact in every room. European plug (works outside EU with a simple plug adapter). It uses 1 bulbs. Franco Albini (17 October 1905–1 November 1977) was an Italian Neo-Rationalist architect, designer and university instructor in design. A native of Robbiate, near Milan, Albini obtained his degree in architecture at Politecnico di Milano University in 1929 and began his professional career working for Gio Ponti. He started displaying his works at Milan Triennale In 1930 he opened his own practice. Through his creations, the modern furniture design merged the Italian traditional artisanship with the new forms of modernism. In his creations, he used raw, inexpensive materials. He exploited the very skilled Italian craftsmanship. This also meant an elegant design based on a Minimalist aesthetic. One of his first successful works in 1939 was a radio, encased in glass, so to show its internal components. In 1928 Albini designed the now-iconic "Albini Desk", combining steel, glass and wood with a striking minimalistic balance, and introduced by Knoll in 1949. In 1950 he designed the famous and fashionable "Margherita" and "Gala" chairs, made of woven cane. In 1952 he created the "Fiorenza" armchair for Arflex; in 1955 the "Luisa" chair; in 1956 the "Rocking chaise" for Poggi. In the 1960s he worked on Industrial Design as well as important architectural projects. In 1961 he designed the Rome Rinascente building. Three years later he designed with Franca Helg and Bob Noorda the Milan Metro Line 1 subway stations, and from 1969 also Milan Metro Line 2 subway stations. In 1964 the television set he created for Brionvega was displayed at the Milan Triennial XIII. In the same year, he created various lamps for Arteluce. Albini worked for companies including Brionvega, Cassina, Arflex, Arteluce and Poggi. He was also an architect and interior designer. Among others, in 1945 he created the Zanini Fur Shop located in Milan. As writer and editor, from 1945-1946 he worked for the Italian magazine Casabella. In the 1950s and 1960s he taught interior design at the Venice School of Architecture (Università Iuav di Venezia). From 1963-1977 he taught design at Milan Polytechnic (Politecnico di Milano). Albini obtained three Compasso d'Oro awards, the most prestigious Italian design prize.

French Midcentury Rattan Light Sculpture/ Floor Lamp, Janine Abraham & D Jan Roi
By Janine Abraham / Dirk Jan Rol
Located in New York, NY
A Magical, Rare French Mid-Century Modern Craftsman Floor Lamp / Light Sculpture in Rattan Attributed to Janine Abraham and Dirk Jan Roi. This minimalist sculpture reflects 1960's culture with its pure, natural aesthetic that was an integral part of American Post-Minimalism and Italian 'Arte Povera'. Simple, everyday materials are used to create an ethereal statement that transcends functional lighting and extends to the realm of light sculpture. The rattan outer structure is in the form of an ellipse that is aesthetically vibrant from every angle; the inner light source is shrouded in a cotton covering that softens the light, adding to the mystery of light itself. Height: 48 x 24 x12 Additional References: Isamu Noguchi, Otto Piene, James Turrrell, RM Fischer...
