Stilnovo floor lamp

Item number: 250181Category: Lighting
Information

Floor lamp, produced by Stilnovo in Italy during the 1950s, features a dynamic and sculptural design centered on three independently adjustable arms. Each arm terminates in a conical lacquered metal shade in red, yellow, or green, mounted on articulated brass arms, which allow for multidirectional lighting. The color palette is emblematic of mid-century modern aesthetics and adds a playful element to the otherwise industrial construction.

The frame is constructed of patinated brass, showing surface oxidation and wear consistent with age, while the shaft is finished in black lacquered metal. The handles at the end of each brass arm are covered in painted metal, which shows visible chipping, offering evidence of original use. The shades have minor surface irregularities, contributing to the lamp’s authentic vintage character.

This model reflects Stilnovo’s technical innovation and visual boldness during the post-war period, combining functionality with expressive form. The lamp measures 165 cm in height (approximately 65 inches) and spans 100 cm in diameter (approximately 39.4 inches) when arms are fully extended. Its presence is both sculptural and practical, intended for interiors that embrace refined, historic design.

The condition is good, with visible signs of wear, patina, and minor paint loss to arms and shades.
