This celebrated postmodern design features Sottsass’s signature sculptural geometry and bold color language, exemplified here by the rare red glass diffuser, which is far less commonly seen than standard variants.
The Callimaco is considered one of Sottsass’s most recognizable lighting designs—both playful and architectural—blurring the line between functional lighting and collectible design object. Its torchiere form casts a warm, ambient glow while standing as a powerful visual statement in any interior.
