This funny shaped floor lamp is very typical out of the box thinking by ettore sottsass. A piece that fits into the stilnovo collection perfectly, inspired by the idea of a simple bent plate, with details in painted metal. This is valigia, an icon in the vast repertory of design by ettore sottsass. Even though its production created no real problems, the lack of the original drawings required a certain amount of commitment in order to rebuild the executive designs, but thanks to the help of barbara radice sottsass, the colors were individuated and the trim remains as true to the original as possible. The lamp is in very good original condition. All our lights are checked, cleaned and are suitable for use in the usa. For us usage you would only have to change the plug or get a holiday converter. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no

however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
