Eclisse table lamp, designed by vico magistretti in 1967, is a true classic that preceded and predicted many of the “space-age” lighting designs popular in the late sixties and seventies. the globe form provides both a strong visual identity as well as a simple but ingenious functional advantage. by turning the inner globe, great control over both light direction and intensity can be achieved. the body of this lamp is constructed from steel lacquered in white, orange or metallic silver. manufactured by artemide.
