A true icon of late 20th-century French design, this Ara table lamp was designed by Philippe Starck in 1988 for the renowned lighting manufacturer Flos. The lamp’s sculptural, aerodynamic form and mirror-polished finish give it a distinctly futuristic yet elegant presence—both a functional light source and a striking conversation piece.
This particular example has been expertly restored. The glass diffuser and the electronic on/off mechanism have been replaced with original Flos components, ensuring full functionality and authenticity. The Ara’s light is activated through a signature gesture: tilt the top horn downward to switch it on; raise it up to switch it off—a beautifully tactile and intuitive interaction.
