Vittoriano Viganò’s work for Arteluce in the 1950s has become highly coveted and emblematic of the sculptural organic designs that emerged from post war Italy. The VV Cinquanta lighting series with its slender forms and ovoid shades perfectly showcase the lavish and gestural style that defined Italian modernism.
This model stands gracefully on a slender black aluminium or brass frame with a reflector made of enameled spun aluminium, available in original Vittoriano Viganò colours.
