Brass and tortoiseshell-effect glass table lamp with original brass and Vienna straw lampshade in excellent condition. It was designed and produced in Italy in the 1970s with materials and style very similar to those of Christian Dior Home and Gabriella Crespi. Height without lampshade: 47 cm. Diameter without lampshade: 15 cm. This lamp is a unique and striking lighting fixture that combines the sheen of glass with the organic texture of Vienna straw. It embodies the design sensibility of the 1980s, fusing modern elements with natural materials. The base of the lamp is made of brass with a tortoiseshell glass cylinder, with clean lines and smooth surfaces that exude sophistication. The lampshade is where the characteristic Vienna straw comes into play, a type of woven material made from natural fibers, typically derived from the rattan plant; features a distinctive pattern of intersecting threads, creating a textured and organic look. The lampshade is meticulously handcrafted and adds depth and visual interest to the overall design. The combination of glass and Vienna straw creates a beautiful contrast between the elegance of the glass base and the "earthy" texture of the lampshade. The light emitted by the lamp is softened and diffused through the woven straw, projecting a warm and delicate light into the surrounding space.
