Vintage Callimaco floor lamp (1980s)

Created in the early 1980s by the great designer Ettore Sottsass, Callimaco is an object with an ambiguous and ironic design, a luminous sculpture inspired by the famous Greek artist Callimachus of Athens from the 5th century. The Callimaco floor lamp fuses a functional soul with a playful essence, through a clever combination of metallic colors. Conical base in dark gray painted steel, yellow cylindrical stem and lamp holder like the base but in red painted metal. On the stem there is the dimmer and the chromed steel handle.
