Great ‘Quadrifoglio’ pending light designed by Gae Aulenti for Harvey Guzzini. Made out of a chrome branche suspension that holds a biomorphic, soft looking acrylic shade. The lamp has three lightsources: two ( E 14 ) hidden inside the shade, and one ( E 27 ) in the middle, reflecting light downward from a silvered metal reflector. Giving a beautiful warm light.
Iconic Italian design of the 20th century, in a great condition with minimal wear.
Italian architect and industrial designer Gae Aulenti is one of the few well recognized women in postwar design. Aulenti made a name with a broad spectrum of elegant and innovative work for a.o. Zanotta, Artemide, Guzzini and Tecno.
In the early fifties, the sons of Mariano Guzzini founded a small Italian company, ‘Harvey Creazioni’. After first producing artistic brass objects, the production later was supplemented by the manufacture of high quality lighting equipment in plastic.
