Table Lamp PIPISTRELLO Agave green MARTINELLI LUCE

This design classic was designed in 1966 by Gae Aulenti, using techniques that were highly innovative for the time. The queen of Italian design for over 50 years, the Pipistrello Martinelli Luce table lamp features a metal tulip base, telescopic brushed stainless steel arm and opaline white methacrylate diffuser. The Pipistrello Martinelli Luce is a table or floor lamp with diffused light. A telescopic system enables the height to be adjusted between 66cm and 86cm. The base of the lampe Pipistrello Martinelli Luce is made of metal painted in very dark brown or white. The design of the diffuser is inspired by the wings of the pipistrello, the European bat from which it takes its name. The shape of the flared base expands in height, widening at the ribs of the diffuser like the wings of a bat. The diffused light that the Pipistrello Martinelli Luce reflects and the ingenuity of its telescopic arm have helped build the success it enjoys today. Pipistrello Martinelli Luce is a timeless object and has made the rounds of all the world's greatest museums. One copy is still in MoMA's permanent collection.
