The lamp uses Holophane glass. The term "Holophane" is used in a general sense to describe transparent molded glass or crystal shades and globes with parallel or transverse prisms. Clear clean lines create a beautiful glow when illuminated. Holophane glass was invented in the 1890s and has been manufactured in many shapes, sizes and patterns to provide specific types of lighting. The term "Prismatic" is an alternative term for holophane glass.
Sergio Mazza was born in Milan in 1931. He soon became a designer and in 1955 began his freelance career. Since 1961, he worked alongside G. Gramigna at the Smc studio, focusing on furniture and industrial design. Among the many awards and honors he received, we can mention the Compasso d'Oro award in 1960 for the Delta lamp by Artemide, and the silver medal for Italian Apartment at the Triennale. From 1967, he also began designing for Olivari, creating the Macco handles for the Giuliana model with Gramigna. In addition, he directed the "Ottagono" magazine with Gramigna from its inception until 1988 in the publishing field.

The lamp is in very good vintage condition.
