Super rare pair of model 109 sconces designed by giusepppe ostuni and manufactured by oluce in italy in 1950. These lamps have a white conical shade that has air vents for cooling. The wall plate is made of brass even as the small arm that holds the shade. The lamps are fully adjustable to any wish. Can be used as an up- or down lighter and everything in between. This makes these lamps very playful. The lamps are in very good original condition. Similar floor lamp model available, but not included in this listing, can be purchased here. Founded in 1945 by giuseppe ostuni, oluce is the oldest italian design company still operating in the lighting world, a unique production excellence which translates passionate aesthetic and technological research into the potential of light into actual form. Over the years, oluce has succeeded in building a collection structured like a tale, rich and multifaceted, inhabited by products that transcend fashion to become italian design icons. In 1951, oluce successfully took part in the ix triennale, presenting – in the lighting section curated by achille, livio and pier giacomo castiglioni – a luminator designed by franco buzzi. As was typical at that time, the company instantly gained visibility on the international panorama thanks to domus magazine. A major success was then reasserted by tito agnoli with nominations at the second edition of the compasso d’oro awards, in 1955, for his two lamps (the 363 floor lamp and a special bookshelf model). In 1956 these were followed in rapid succession by two more nominations: one for a remarkable table lamp in polyvinyl slats and another for a pendant lamp (mod. 4461) with double perspex shade. Then, there was the noteworthy 255/387 lamp (known as ”agnoli”), a spot light supported by a slender stem, which in 1954 marked the decline of lampshades and the adoption of highly simplified floor lamps even for home lighting.
