GINO SARFATTI (Italy, 1912 - 1985) for Arteluce. Table lamp "522", Milan, 1948. In fluted glass and alloy. Presents the publisher's stamp. Referenced in: Marco Romanelli and Sandra Severi, "Gino Sarfatti Selected works 1938-1973". Milano, 2012, p.423. Measurements: 40 x 34 x 34 cm. This is a model particularly appreciated in the world of design. The lamp 522 created by Gino Sarfatti and produced by Artiluce Milano in 1948 offers a warm and cozy lighting. Its shape is based on ancient vegetal-inspired bedside table lamps but transforms them into a modern concept: the lampshade rests on an alloy base that opens into four slats, which, like a fungal hat in fluted glass, covers the light source. Particularly known for his ceiling lamps inspired by antique chandeliers, but also for table lamps of remarkable originality, Gino Sarfatti created over four hundred pieces of lighting throughout his career, mostly produced by Arteluce. As in many of his pieces, in the design of these lamps he starts from the structure of the classic table lamp and simplifies the forms, adapting them to a rationalist aesthetic and the use of new materials related to the world of industrial production. Sarfatti was born in Venice in 1912, and studied aeronautical engineering at the University of Genoa. From 1939 he worked in the lighting sector; he created the firm Arteluce, which was soon to become an international reference in the field of modern lighting design. Sarfatti was distinguished with important awards, such as the Compasso d'Oro in 1954 and 1955, and the Honorary Diploma of the Milan Triennale.
