The Spiral table lamp model LT217, designed by Carlo Nason for Mazzega in the 1970s, is a captivating study in movement and form. A single strip of hand-blown Murano glass forms a graceful spiral that diffuses light in soft, flowing patterns. The glass sculpture is elegantly housed in a minimalist, cubic metal frame that provides both structure and contrast—accentuating the delicate transparency of the glass against the sleek geometry of the metal.
