Product description
Gravity is just an opinion. Born in the creative ferment of 1970s Turin for the Olivetti Residential Center, the Bul-bo floor lamp is a masterclass in balance and irony. It doesn’t just stand; it poses. With its signature "punching bag" base and its slender, adjustable neck, it brings a kinetic, sculptural energy to any room.
This is an original 1970s piece, not a contemporary reissue. It carries the soul of Italian Radical Design, reimagined for a modern, high-end loft. We believe in preserving the story, not erasing it. This Bul-bo has undergone a meticulous conservative restoration. The internal padding has been professionally restored to ensure perfect stability, and the original black leather has been treated to regain its supple, deep luster. The technical soul has been updated. The electrical system is fully overhauled and ready for daily use.
The aluminum shade and the flexible stem show the light, honest "signs of time" that certify its vintage pedigree. No fakes here just pure, aged-to-perfection history.
Ready to lean into your space. Whether it’s bowing over a reclaimed wood table or casting a warm glow on a resin floor, the Bul-bo is a conversation piece that refuses to be ignored.
