Originally produced by Artemide, this table lamp is distinguished by its unique, sculptural shape. It is characterised by a swivelling diffuser made of opal plastic that allows the light to be directed in various directions. The base is cylindrical and supports a curved arm on which the diffuser is mounted. The diffuser is available in vibrant colours such as white, orange and green, typical of that era. The Telegono expresses Magistretti’s functional minimalism, with a simple yet striking structure that emphasises both the aesthetics and versatility of the light.
