Frattini, Gianfranco, Meroni, Table Lamps, Italy, 1960s

A model 'Lotus' table lamp designed by Gianfranco Frattini for Meroni in 1966. The lamp is made of a lacquered wooden ring base on which a glass flask stands. The flask can be filled with a liquid, creating a lens-like optical effect. The diabolo shaped shade is covered with white fabric and has an aluminum deflector on top. It is placed in the flask with a cork and has three light bulbs inside and one on top.

We also have two larger versions with an orange shade available.
