The floor lamp by tony zuccheri is extremely unusual and rare. The heavy, illuminated base with the slits carries the elaborately mouth-blown clear glass reflector with membrane/partition in amorphous inlaid milk glass via 3 ball screws. The artistically designed glass reflector shimmers mysteriously when only the foot is switched on. The luminaire offers different views of the amorphous white membrane in every position. this stunning floor lamp is in good used condition. There a few minor signs of wear as shown on the photographs which add even more to its originality. It is fully functioning with the original cord switch with 2 switches, the base lamp and glass reflector/room light can be switched on separately. Of course, the lamp can be used with modern led lamps. Currently has a uk plug which can be changed upon request. chrome-plated brass and steel with textured coating, murano art glass reflector, mouth-blown clear glass with amorphous milk glass partition, white plastic connection cable, 2 e 27 lighting points, original cord switch w:35cm d:35cm h:112cm toni zuccheri was born in 1936.
