Nessino Table Lamp
from Artemide
nessino table lamp
Design Giancarlo Mattioli, 1967
Injection molded ABS thermoplastic
Made in Italy by Artemide
Nessino is an icon of Italian design from the 1960's - a decade that heralded the conquest of modernity in which design redefined the domestic landscape though the first uses of plastics. Innovative and democratic, its expressive form inspired by nature interprets and challenges industrial manufacturing.
Nessino is the smaller version of the Nesso lamp, originally designed by Giancarlo Mattioli and Gruppo Architetti Urbanisti Città Nuova in the 1960s. The lamp has become a design icon, with its mushroom shape and bright orange or white hues. Part of the "Modern Classics" reissued line, it was a marvel of ABS thermoplastic injection-molding when first introduced in 1967 thus bringing industrial materials and methods to the home and office environments. A dash of color and a design inspired from nature, Nessino stems from the visionary identity of Artemide.
With its smaller size, Nessino finds its place in a wide range of settings.
12.6" diameter | 8.8" h | light source: requires 4x 25W E12 bulbs
