Tebe, Floor Lamp by Ernesto Gismondi for Artemide, Italy, 1980s

Elegant floor lamp with an anthracite grey/black lacquered aluminum body and a half-moon-shaped shade of molded, frosted glass, a treatment that makes the surface opaque, softening halogen light while maintaining an elegant translucency. Named Tebe, this tall model was designed in 1989 by aeronautical engineer and designer Ernesto Gismondi, who co-founded Artemide. At the crossroads of late modernism and Italian postmodernism, this halogen lamp (LED-compatible) provides a beautiful, dimmable indirect light. - Model: Tebe. Designed by: Ernesto Gismondi.
