Angelo Lelii "12697" Ceiling Lamp for Arredoluce, 1958

Angelo Lelii "12697" Ceiling Lamp for Arredoluce, brass, perspex and glass, Italy, 1958

A luminous testament to Italian modernism, the Angelo Lelli “12697” ceiling lamp, pendant lighting, chandelier for Arredoluce (Italy, 1958) embodies a poetic balance of form and function. Suspended like an architectural halo, its opaline glass diffuser is embraced by a finely spaced rhythm of brass rods, crowned by a gently glowing yellow perspex disc that elevates the design’s sculptural presence.

Lelli’s mastery lies in the marriage of materials — warm brass, soft blown glass, and colored perspex — echoing the refined lighting experiments of Gino Sarfatti and the harmonious compositions of Gio Ponti’s Arredoluce masterpieces.

More than a lamp, the "12697" is a work of ambient architecture — light as atmosphere, material as narrative — perfect for interiors that celebrate the thoughtful lineage of Italian design.
