ASTEP 548 TABLE LAMP Ø19" x H19"

ASTEP The table lamp designed in 1951 is a study in balance and light reflection through a screen, a recurring theme in Gino Sarfatti’s work. Model 548 provides both reflected and diffused light due to the adjustable spotlight that is directed up towards a reflecting screen. The large diffuser provides a highly sophisticated light effect and is an essential part of the illusion and the play with perception. The spotlight in white painted aluminum is mounted on a tubular stem in polished or burnished brass, while a small brass bar at the base serves as a counterweight in the beautiful balancing act of the individual elements of Model 548.
