About the Item

Rara coppia di grandi lampade a parete mod. 1537 disegnate da Pietro Chiesa per Fontana Arte nel 1936. Struttura conica in ottone, diffusori in cristallo satinato e molato. Eccellenti condizioni. Nel 1933 fu creato un dipartimento specializzato in arredi moderni, che prese il nome di FontanaArte, la cui direzione, in un primo tempo affidata a Ponti, subito dopo, su suggerimento dello stesso, passò a Pietro Chiesa, che seppe guidarla ai vertici mondiali del settore, fino alla sua prematura scomparsa nel 1948. Furono creati gli articoli più svariati: mobili, piatti, scatole, portaritratti, cornici, specchi, sculture, vetrate, spesso su disegno degli artisti più famosi. Ma fu soprattutto negli apparecchi d'illuminazione che FontanaArte si dimostrò straordinariamente all'avanguardia, con modelli d'un razionalismo purissimo, eseguiti magistralmente sfruttando al meglio tutte le lavorazioni del cristallo che più le erano congeniali. Per questi e altri arredi di design storico Italiano seguite la nostra galleria SECONDA GIOVINEZZA, offriamo servizi di ricerca personalizzata e restauro. Montaggio in loco su richiesta del cliente.
