Suspension lamp, ca. 1980

Suspension lamp, ca. 1980
In lacquered metal and opaline.
Measurements: 40 x 60 x 60 cm.

This suspension lamp stands out for its forceful geometry -created by the intersection of spherical and flat volumes-, and for the play of bichromatic hallmarks between the opaline glass and the black lacquer. This is characteristic of the transition between late Space Age design and the industrial postmodernism of the 1980s. Its "flying saucer" design functions almost like a suspended sculpture. It emits a warm, diffused light.
