A sculptural lighting piece combining geometric precision with a warm, atmospheric glow.

The tall, vertical structure is composed of four stacked square sections in cream-coloured lacquered metal, each featuring large circular openings that reveal the illuminated glass globes within. The contrast between the angular metal framework and the softly rounded glass elements creates a distinctive graphic silhouette, while the visible screws and open construction add a subtle industrial character.

When illuminated, the glass globes diffuse a warm, inviting light through the circular openings, creating an interesting interplay of light, shadow and transparency. The neutral cream finish softens the bold geometry and gives the lamp a refined, almost architectural presence.

An unusual and characterful example of Italian Space Age lighting, combining functional illumination with a strong decorative identity. Equally appealing when switched off, this sculptural piece brings a distinctive 1970s atmosphere to both contemporary and eclectic interiors. In general good vintage condition with signs of use conform for the age.
