1970s Mid-Century Modern Gilt Metal Italian Adjustable Desk Lamp
By Reggiani
Located in Aci Castello, IT
A gilt metal and plastic desk lamp designed and manufactured in Italy in the seventies in very good conditions overall. It's in working order. The desk lamp is a sleek and functional lighting fixture that embodies the design principles of the era. This desk lamp seamlessly combines the luxurious elegance of gilt metal with the contemporary appeal of black plastic, creating a striking visual contrast. The gilt metal adds a touch of opulence and sophistication to the design, exuding a sense of vintage glamour. The metal is polished to a smooth and reflective finish, enhancing its lustrous appearance. Contrasting the gilt metal, various components of the lamp, are crafted from black plastic. The use of black plastic introduces a modern and industrial aesthetic, creating a visual juxtaposition against the golden tones of the metal. One notable feature of this desk lamp is its adjustability. It incorporates a flexible or articulating arm mechanism that allows the user to modify the angle and height of the light source. This adjustability provides enhanced functionality, enabling precise illumination for specific tasks or areas on the desk.
