Pair of five-arm wall lamps, model Lp12, designed by Ignazio Gardella for Azucena and crafted in Italy in 1959. The structure is made of brass, and the diffusers are crafted from brushed satin glass.
Originally designed for the PAD (Padiglione di Arte Contemporanea) in Milan in 1958, these large-sized wall lamps feature five stylized and inverted amphorae made of satin glass, suspended from slender brass arms, with rear plates bearing the original Azucena mark.
Measuring 110x52x56 cm, the wall lamps are in excellent original and working condition, featuring only minor oxidations on the brass frame. The glass is flawless. Each lamp accommodates an E27 bulb with a maximum wattage of 75W.
