Angelo Lelii - Lamp - Metal, Marble, Brass, Glass - Polifemo model 12555

Important and iconic floor lamp “Polifemo”, model 12555, designed in 1956 by Angelo Lelii (1911–1979) for Arredoluce, Monza, a renowned manufacturer at the forefront of postwar Italian lighting. Polifemo represents one of Lelii's most recognizable designs. The extremely slender structure features a circular white marble base, a long light-toned stem, and metallic brass/bronze-toned detailing. A distinctive feature of the model is the swiveling central light unit, conceived as a large eye with the name Polifemo inserted inside a concentric ring structure. The system allows you to orient the light by changing the direction of illumination. At the top is the characteristic large flared diffuser, completing the lamp's vertical silhouette and producing indirect illumination. The lamp has dual illumination, controllable by the floor switch with two buttons.
