An exceptional and highly sculptural Italian adjustable table lamp designed and manufactured by Fratelli Mannelli in the 1970s, exemplifying the bold experimentation and material contrast of the period.

This striking lamp combines a solid travertine stone base with polished chrome-plated steel arms and vivid red molded plastic joints, creating a dynamic architectural presence. The long, articulated arm allows for expressive adjustability, balancing industrial precision with sculptural elegance. The exposed bulb holder enhances its raw, modernist character, making it equally suited as a functional task lamp or a statement design object.

The natural travertine base grounds the piece with weight and texture, contrasting beautifully with the reflective chrome and vibrant red accents—an unmistakably Italian approach to form and materiality during the late modern era.

A rare and collectible example of 1970s Italian lighting design, ideal for collectors of post-modern, radical Italian, and architectural lighting.
