Large Globula Table Lamp by Poliarte

An exceptional and highly sculptural "Globula" table lamp crafted in Italy during the 1970s by Poliarte. Its unique silhouette features stacked, handcrafted glass cylinders arranged into a rhythmic, architectural structure that produces a captivating interplay of light, shadow, and soft diffusion. The tactile, uneven finish of each glass ring—a signature mark of Poliarte’s artisanal technique—gives the piece an icy, crystalline texture. When lit, the lamp casts a warm, ambient glow that underscores the subtle textures and natural nuances within the glass. The cylindrical body sits atop a sleek metal base, offering a refined, reflective base that contrasts beautifully with the textured glass work. A striking representation of Poliarte's bold exploration of geometric composition and glass art, this piece functions equally as a standalone sculptural object and a radiant focal point. Founded in Verona in 1968 by Albano Poli, Poliarte earned renown for its artistic, highly experimental vision in lighting design. Focusing on hand-cast glass, the studio combined rich textures, transparency, and modular geometry to craft luminous pieces that bridge art and architecture. Highly sought after by collectors, Poliarte remains a celebrated symbol of 1970s Italian design and glassmaking innovation. Dimensions. Height: 41 cm. Width: 35.5 cm. Depth: 35.5 cm.
