Tischlampe „'Spiral', Modell LT217

The Spiral table lamp model LT217, designed by Carlo Nason for Mazzega in the 1970s, is a captivating study in movement and form. A single ribbon of hand-blown Murano glass coils into a graceful spiral, diffusing light in soft, fluid patterns. The glass sculpture is elegantly housed within a minimalist, cube-shaped metal frame that provides both structure and contrast—highlighting the delicate transparency of the glass against the clean geometry of the metal.
