Rare in two tone black and grey model 211 wall lamps designed by Gino Sarfatti and manufactured by Arteluce in Italy in 1955. Indirect light wall lamp, vertical or horizontal end piece in black lacquered aluminium. It acts as a screen that torts around the bulb. The base consists of a plate of grey aluminium. Sarfatti designed over 400 lighting products and made a significant contribution to innovating lighting design by experimenting with new materials, production methodologies and light sources. In 1951, he first began to work with plexi-glass. Gino Sarfatti was the first to design a lamp that uses halogen bulbs back in 1971. Sarfatti and Arteluce received several design awards including e.g., the prestigious Compasso d’Oro in 1954 and 1955, and the Honorary Diploma at the Milan Triennale. Arteluce was sold to Flos in 1973 and took over production of many lights.
