A rare prototype version of the iconic tulip lamp by the italian manufacturer myyour, dating from the early 2000s. This version was never put into regular production and was never available for retail sale. It is an early development study of the well-known outdoor floor lamp, reduced to a compact, sculptural form. the organic design language references the abstracted tulip: a closed flower shape with softly modeled petals, a slender stem, and suggested leaf structure. The translucent, red-dyed plastic produces an intense, almost luminous light effect with a homogeneous glow when switched on. The materiality—typical of myyour—is particularly appealing, with its slightly satin finish and clean lines. Unlike the full-size production version, this prototype appears almost like a design object, somewhere between a light sculpture and a pop art figure. Due to its limited production run and the fact that this version was never officially released, it has a distinct collector's value. An exceptional piece for design collectors, concept apartments, or curated interiors focusing on early 2000s design and plastic aesthetics. condition: very good condition.
