Variable Light Articulated Lamp - Gabriele D'Ali for Francesconi - Italy - '60s

About the Item

This extraordinary floor lamp, designed by Gabriele D'Ali and produced by Francesconi Brescia in 1965, is a perfect example of 1960s Italian design, combining functionality with aesthetic refinement. Made entirely of chrome-plated steel, the lamp features an innovative double-jointed mechanism that allows the diffuser's tilt to be precisely adjusted, ensuring optimal directional lighting. The light diffusion system, designed with a perforated tubular element, allows effective light dispersion, creating a sophisticated and enveloping atmosphere. The authenticity of the piece is attested by the presence of the original label under the base, bearing the production date 1965, and by the publication of the lamp in the prestigious magazine Domus, issue 487 of June 1970, confirming its historical relevance in the Italian design scene of the 20th century. Gabriele D'Ali is an Italian designer active in the second half of the twentieth century, known for his innovative approach to lighting and furniture. His creations are distinguished by the skillful use of metals and adjustable mechanisms that combine aesthetics and functionality. His works, often in limited editions, are now sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of 20th-century design. Francesconi Brescia is an Italian company specializing in the production of high-quality lighting. Active since the 1950s, its production has always combined technological research and craftsmanship, leading to the creation of iconic design pieces. Collaborations with innovative designers, such as Gabriele D'Ali, have made the brand a benchmark in the lighting industry, with a focus on functionality and formal elegance. This lamp, in excellent condition, is a unique opportunity for collectors and lovers of vintage design, combining historical value with the timeless beauty of Italian design.
