Bolla wall lamp by Elio Martinelli for Martinelli Luce, 1960s.
Iconic wall or ceiling lamp inspired, as the name suggests, by soap bubbles. Made from a single piece of white acrylic, which has been heated and molded into its distinctive spherical shape. The material is light and durable and creates a diffused light that is warm and inviting.
Elio Martinelli was a visionary creator of lamps, who was neither an architect nor an engineer but studied set design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence. In 1950 he took over his father's business and began building lighting fixtures to be placed in the interiors he designed. The Bolla has become an icon of Italian design and is present in the permanent collections of several museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Overall, Bolla lamp is a timeless design piece that combines elegance, simplicity and functionality.
