About the Item

The iconic COBRA table lamp was designed by Elio Martinelli in 1968 and is one of the first lighting fixtures made with a unique resin molding system. The lower part of the lamp is connected to the upper part by a central joint for 360-degree rotation, allowing it to reflect light where it is most needed, resembling the head of a cobra ready to strike.
