Product description
Luigi Massoni – “Albero” Table Lamp for Guzzini, Italy, 1971 A rare and museum-worthy “Albero” table lamp designed by Luigi Massoni and produced by Harvey Guzzini in Italy in 1971. This model is widely regarded as one of the most distinctive expressions of Italian Space Age design, a movement that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s, characterized by futuristic forms, innovative materials, and a visionary approach to domestic environments. Massoni, a central figure in Italian post-war design, collaborated with Guzzini to create lighting objects that merged industrial precision with sculptural elegance. The “Albero” (Italian for “tree”) perfectly embodies this philosophy: a branching chrome-plated steel structure supports a constellation of hand-blown Murano glass diffusers. Each glass element is finely crafted, displaying subtle variations and depth of color typical of authentic Murano production. When illuminated, the lamp produces a warm, atmospheric glow, enhancing both the chromatic richness of the glass and the architectural clarity of the structure. Condition Report: This example is preserved in outstanding, near-perfect condition. The chrome-plated structure is exceptionally well maintained, with a bright, mirror-like surface. All Murano glass diffusers are intact, with no cracks, chips, or restorations. The lamp is fully functional and ready for immediate use. Glassware: Semi-circular Emerald Green Pulegoso Murano Glass slab. The "pulegoso" technique involves air bubbles trapped within the glass mass, creating a distinctively organic texture and a mesmerizing light diffusion. Specifications: Designer: Luigi Massoni Model: “Albero” Country of origin: Italy Year: 1971 Materials: Chrome-plated steel, hand-blown Murano glass Condition: Excellent / near mint, fully operational Additional Information: An increasingly rare collector’s piece, the “Albero” lamp is highly sought after for its sculptural presence and historical relevance within 20th-century Italian design. It functions equally as a lighting object and as a statement artwork within refined interiors. Shipping: Worldwide shipping available. The lamp will be professionally packed using high-quality protective materials to ensure safe international delivery. Full insurance and tracking will be provided.
