Luminator was one of the first projects that Pietro Chiesa, then the owner of a workshop in Milan specialising in artistic glassware, created for
Fontana Arte, of which he would later become artistic director alongside Gio Ponti. The first floor lamp with indirect light,
Luminator, consists of a thin metal rod that opens into a cone, inside which is the light source. A single element resting on a circular base,
Luminator is a floor lamp of almost abstract rigour and purity, by far one of the most extraordinary pieces designed by Pietro Chiesa.
