20th limited edition Ruspa desk lamp Gae Aulenti 1960s
The Ruspa table lamp, designed by the legendary Gae Aulenti in the 1960s, is a true masterpiece of Italian modernism. Originally produced by Martinelli Luce, this striking lamp embodies the experimental spirit of the era, with its adjustable, sculptural shades designed to direct light in multiple directions, evoking the dynamic movement of a mechanical excavator - hence the name “Ruspa” (bulldozer in Italian).
This rare 2000s reissue (001) , in a vibrant yellow finish, pays homage to Aulenti’s visionary design. Signed and numbered, it stands as both a functional lighting piece and a collectible work of art. It remains in excellent condition, normnal sign of aged and use. Perfect for adding a bold, sophisticated touch to any vintage-inspired interior, this lamp captures the elegance, innovation, and playfulness of mid-century Italian design. Bring home a design icon with timeless allure!
