Description
Oversized, impressive brass table lamp Model L2B Ippocastano (Horse Chestnut) designed by Carlo Giorgi for Bottega Gadda, though often mis-attributed to Tommaso Barbi, with whom Giorgi collaborated (ca. 1970s, Milan, Italy).
Large version of this table lamp composed of twelve brass leaves inserted into a cylindrical column-form stem.
Substantial light source accommodating four standard bulbs in the sockets under the leaves and one additional standard bulb at the top.
Original wiring, and plug (plug will be changed for US use, unless otherwise requested).
Previously (not newly) polished - patina/tarnish spots remain, particularly to top and base, as shown. Can be rectified by polishing.
H: 36.5" x L: 30.5" x D: 30"
