Stunning Pausania desk lamp, designed in the 1980s by Ettore Sottsass for Artemide. A true icon of postmodern design, this piece perfectly reflects Sottsass's unique vision: an approach that is at once architectural, playful, and functional. Its structure combines a black lacquered metal base, two chrome columns, and a rectangular, openwork diffuser with geometric and colorful accents, typical of the Memphis Milano movement. The indirect lighting creates a soft, diffused light, ideal for a desk, library, or designer workspace. A rare model, emblematic of the collaborations between Sottsass and Artemide, prized by collectors and enthusiasts of 20th-century Italian design. Designer: Ettore Sottsass (1917-2007) Manufacturer: Artemide, Italy. Model: Pausania. Period: 1980s. Materials: Lacquered metal, chrome rods, perforated colored resin elements. Colors: Black, green, silver. Dimensions: Approx. 45 X 40 X 15 cm. Condition: Excellent vintage condition, virtually flawless, with only a few very light, barely visible scratches (see photos). Functionality verified. Secure shipping with packaging. Personal pickup available in Paris and the surrounding area. Delivery to France and Europe upon request. An iconic piece of 1980s Italian design, the Pausania exemplifies Sottsass's characteristic dialogue between technology and sculpture. It integrates harmoniously into interiors that blend Memphis Milano furniture.
