About the Item
This rare sculptural lamp by Italian artist and designer Marika Carniti Bollea is a coveted piece from her limited body of work. Shaped in the form of a nautilus shell, the design evokes a quiet sense of movement and balance. Marika Carniti Bollea was known for her experimental approach to material and form, often working at the intersection of fine art and functional design. Active primarily in the 1970s and 1980s, she created highly tactile works that drew inspiration from natural geometry, classical mythology, and the architecture of the body. The Nautilus Lamp stands as one of her most recognizable and elusive designs, rarely seen on the market and prized by collectors.
