This table lamp, designed by ernesto gismondi for artemide in italy during the 1970s, is a fine example of mid-century modern lighting design. It showcases the designer’s signature balance of functional clarity and elegant form. The lamp features clean, architectural lines and a thoughtful use of materials, resulting in a piece that feels both refined and timeless. Its sculptural silhouette makes it suitable not only as a practical light source but also as a decorative element in any interior. Whether placed on a desk, sideboard, or bedside table, this lamp provides a warm and pleasant illumination while adding a touch of sophisticated italian design heritage. A collectible original from one of the most influential lighting manufacturers of the era, it stands as both a stylish everyday object and a statement of design history. The light requires one e27/e26 light bulb. Works with us and european electrics 110/120/220v. Very good vintage condition. this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
