medusa lampDesign Olaf Von Bohr, 1968.
Lacquered steel, metal. Made in Italy by Valenti & co. In the seventies, about 40,000 Medusa lamps were sold. The light designed by Austrian designer, Olaf Von Bohr quickly became a commercial success, but above all it became an object that managed to interpret and direct the taste of a world that was discovering design in that very period. Sensual and allusive, during the course of the years Medusa has passed through fashions, habits and events. Huge changes that did not mar the appeal of a clear and minimalist design, that managed to retain its content of dreams and joy. Valenti is re-releasing the Medusa lamp in a limited and numbered edition of 200 pieces and guaranteed by a certificate of authenticity. Made by assembling bent and painted steel foils around a steel circle to form a particularly soft light diffuser. Sinuous and appealing, it combines the principles of a clear and minimal design with the timeless force of dreams and poetry. 12" dia. | 25" h Light bulb not included. + free shipping in the continental U.S. (please allow 8-12 weeks for delivery). |
