Italy, Circa 1970s
 
An iconic example of Italian Space Age design, this original 1970s Harvey Guzzini “Faro” table lamp embodies the bold optimism and sculptural clarity of the era.
 
The vibrant domed acrylic shade, finished in a striking orange hue, emits a beautifully warm and atmospheric glow when illuminated casting a soft, ambient light that transforms a room in the evening. When unlit, the lamp remains equally eye-catching, its saturated colour and clean architectural form acting as a sculptural statement within the interior.
 
The polished chrome structure and circular base provide a refined contrast to the luminous shade.
 
The unique rise-and-fall mechanism allows the dome to be adjusted vertically to a desired position a distinctive and functional design detail characteristic of Guzzini’s innovative approach.
 
This piece retains its original maker’s label, confirming authenticity. Light surface scratches are present, consistent with age and careful use, and do not detract from its strong visual impact or collectable appeal.
 
A timeless and highly recognisable design, ideal for collectors of 20th-century Italian lighting or for those seeking a bold yet sophisticated accent within contemporary interiors.
