Lino Taglapietra Pyramid Table Lamp by Effetre 1980’s Italy

About the Item

A striking example of Italian glass artistry, this Pyramid Table Lamp was originally designed in the 1970s by Lino Tagliapietra for Vetri Murano and later reissued in the 1980s by Effetre. Celebrated as one of Murano’s most influential glass masters, Tagliapietra brought his exceptional craftsmanship and modern sensibility to this bold, sculptural piece. The lamp features a tall, pyramidal silhouette, hand-blown in Murano glass using the intricate filigrana technique, with precise vertical black striping over white. The lines subtly warp with the shape, giving it a sense of movement. When illuminated, it casts a warm, atmospheric glow, highlighting the beauty of the striped glass. It stands on a minimalist white base and retains its original On/Off switch, true to the lamp’s clean and understated aesthetic. The piece was also professionally rewired a few years ago, ensuring it is fully functional and safe for contemporary use. In excellent vintage condition, this lamp is not only a lighting element but a sculptural object, embodying the essence of 1970s Murano design and its revival in the 1980s. A rare collector’s piece that bridges craftsmanship and timeless modernity.

Longobarda Ceramic Table Lamp by Marcello Cuneo for Gabbianelli 1966 Italy
By Gabbianelli, Marcello Cuneo
Located in Lisboa, PT
A bold and playful expression of Italian radical design, the Longobarda Table Lamp was created by Marcello Cuneo for Gabbianelli in 1966. Sculptural and instantly iconic, this ceramic lamp captures the spirit of the 1960s with its futuristic form, saturated color, and pop sensibility. Crafted in glazed ceramic and finished in a vivid high-gloss orange, the lamp’s fluid, monolithic silhouette is as much a light source as it is a piece of art. Its arched top curves into a flowing base, concealing the bulb and directing a warm, glowing light downward and outward — creating a dramatic effect whether lit or not. The lamp’s pure form is uninterrupted by visible seams or switches, with a hidden on/off mechanism and internal bulb placement that enhance its sculptural integrity. This particular example is in very good vintage condition, and was professionally rewired some years ago to ensure safe and functional use. Marcello Cuneo, a former collaborator of Gio Ponti, designed the Longobarda as a radical departure from traditional lighting — its silhouette evoking both ancient helmets...
