This set of four B&B Italia "Overscale Flames" architectural oil lamps presents a striking fusion of organic form and geometric structure. The design is characterised by the tension between the fluid, pebble-like volume of the lamp body and the rigid, linear cage that surrounds it.
Constructed with a white metal frame enclosing a smooth, white biopolymer or plastic reservoir, each lamp features three metal wick holders along its top ridge. The stark white colourway emphasises the sculptural qualities of the pieces, allowing them to read as contemporary art objects even when unlit. The set is designed to be displayed together, creating a rhythmic, architectural installation.
The set remains in perfect condition, showing no visible signs of wear. The pristine white finish is consistent across all four units, and the wick mechanisms appear unused or exceptionally well-maintained.
These oversized oil lamps are ideally suited for expansive contemporary interiors, minimalist terraces, or architectural garden settings. They serve as dramatic focal points, offering both sculptural presence during the day and atmospheric illumination in the evening.
