Tamburo lamp by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Flos

The Tamburo lamp , designed by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Flos in 1973 , is a beautiful example of their progressive design vision. This compact design is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and combines functionality with Italian elegance. The cylindrical design — named after the Italian word for “ drum ” — is crafted from enameled aluminum and features glass diffusers that distribute the light softly and evenly. Unlike the larger floor lamp versions, this smaller version emphasises the versatility of the design: ideal on a side table, sideboard or as a floor lamp, also suitable for covered outdoor areas. The condition is very good vintage, with minimal signs of wear. A rare and sought-after design piece, perfect for those seeking a timeless and distinctive addition.
