Mid Century Italian Lacquered Vellum & Brass Large Table Lamp Attr Aldo Tura

About the Item

Mid Century Italian lacquered vellum & brass large table lamp. Attributed to Aldo Tura (1909–1963). Circa 1960. The lamp is in very good condition, showing light signs to the lacquer, a few small nibbles to a back corner and one to the front to note. Please refer to the photographs. The brass has been left with its original patina. It has been PAT tested this year, before we purchased it, so you may wish to have a professional to look at it. The height of 39m does not include the lamp switch fitting. UK plug fitted. The lacquered vellum is typical and quite unique of Aldo Tura’s work. Tura began manufacturing his signature furniture in the 1930s. Working between the idioms of Art Deco and Modernism, Tura created singular, high-end furniture and accessories that were typified by rich materials, sculptural forms and artisanal techniques. He favoured intricate, complex forms and labour-intensive processes that could never by replicated in a large-scale factory system. He is recognized as being one of the most original and important artisans of the Italian post-war design movement.
