Vintage table lamp composed of a acrylic glass block in which a starfish is inserted.
This vintage lamp from the 1970s, with a distinctive design, is characterized by a transparent acrylic glass structure that forms the base, inside which a starfish is set, a decorative element that recalls the charm of nature and a maritime aesthetic. The acrylic glass base gives an elegant and modern appearance, typical of the design experimentation of the period.
The lampshade has a woven rattan finish which produces an atmospheric scenic effect when the lamp is lit. The light that filters through the texture creates a fascinating play of shadows and reflections on the surrounding surfaces, amplifying the retro and decorative atmosphere. This play of light enhances the three-dimensionality of the base and adds warmth to the environment, making the object not only functional but also an artistic and decorative element of great impact.
The combination of innovative plastic materials for the time (such as acrylic glass) and organic details (the starfish) reflects the typical experimentation of 1970s design, which often merged technology and nature in an aesthetic and functional perspective. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
