Table lamps come in all shapes and sizes. Trough out history some of them remained remarkable.
We selected what we think to be the most iconic ones and that you for sure need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design Vico Magistretti, 1977<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Designed in 1977 by Vico Magistretti, over the years, Atollo has become the archetype of the table lamp, winning the Compasso d\u2019Oro in 1979 and completely revolutionizing the way we imagine the classic bedside lamp. The geometric shapes that compose it \u2013 cylinder, cone, and hemisphere \u2013 have resulted in a product that is decorative and essential at the same time, disconnected from the historical period and the fashions of the moment, and one that has now fully become one of the icons of Italian design. Atollo<\/strong> is available in three different sizes and in different finishes: opaline opaque metal\/blown glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taccia is a very interesting lamp because of its history, and because some people today think that it is a post-modern object. In fact, it was made in 1962 by the Castiglioni brothers and they had not the slightest intention of making a post-modern lamp.
Thanks to the use of a cutting-edge LED light source, with very high efficiency and color rendering index, but reduced heat emission, Flos has finally been able to edit Taccia with a transparent plastic diffuser that is accurately faithful to the original concept, available alongside the existing Taccia LED, featuring the classic glass bowl.
Table lamp providing indirect and reflected light. Reflector in painted aluminum, gloss white on the outside, and matt white on the inside. Directional diffuser in transparent PMMA. Body in matt black or naturally anodized extruded aluminum. Base in nickel-plated metal. The electric cable of useful length 220 cm, with dimmer switch for ON\/OFF and adjustment of the light flow between 10-100%. Plug-in power supply with interchangeable plugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed for Flos, Serena is an adjustable lamp that provides indirect and reflected light thanks to its dynamic reflector. Inspired by the simple beauty of nature, Serena appears as if it was n motion; a leaf blown by a gentle breeze, dancing through a current of wind. The structure of the lighting body reduces the LED source\u2019s visual impact, providing the user with a level of comfort that belies the design\u2019s superior technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The designer and architect Verner Panton (1926-1998) created Panthella together with Louis Poulsen in 1971. Panton\u2019s figurative and playful design radiates his larger-than-life personality. Without compromising on quality or functionality, the world-renowned Dane continued to develop new materials for the colorful and captivating spaces that he created out of his enticing designs. Panthella stands out as one of Panton\u2019s most significant design icons with its organic shape that mirrors the softest of light. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melt Lamp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"\"$ <\/figure><\/li>

Obsessed with the idea of creating an imperfect, organic, and naturalistic lighting object, Melt was created in collaboration between Tom Dixon and FRONT \u2013 a Swedish design collective. Melt is evocative of molten glass, the interior of a melting glacier, or images of deep space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Melt lights are created through a process of blow molding and vacuum metallization to achieve melted orbs with abundant and unusual luminosity. Over several years we have worked with some forerunners of German engineering and manufacturing to develop these techniques and produce lamps that create the latest in reflectivity and transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the use of injection blow molding, a melted plastic polymer molding is injected into a massive precision-made steel tool, inflated with compressed air, and then cooled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mirror finish of each pendant is then created by the highly technical process of vacuum metallization. The polycarbonate shell is secreted in the interior of a metallic chamber, the air sucked out, and an immense electrical charge channeled through. With a bang and pop, a thin strip of copper foil is vaporized into a fine mist of metallic particles that settles across the interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dusk Dawn draws its name from a magical arc of time: the arrival and departure of soft light. It is the time when the sun dips below the horizon to leave an afterglow that signals the arrival of the night, and that carries us to the brief embrace of dawn light in the morning. Playing on the intersection of its two defining shapes: a soft shade and geometric, conic base, Dusk Dawn transforms from what appears to be a solid brass volume to reveal an inner conic ‘spire’ of light when illuminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Bankers lamp is one of the most recognizable table lamp designs in the world. It is a style featured in many American films on office desks. The lamp was initially used in libraries, banks, and business offices. Today they are widely used in people\u2019s homes, regarded as a perfect fit for a vintage study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"\"$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The patent for the iconic desk lamp design as we know it today was issued in 1909 to Harrison Dawson McFaddin, an American engineer born in New York.
They were manufactured by J. Schreiber & Neffen, which also produced glass items for other clients, but the green lamp shades were made strictly for H.G. McFaddin & Co.

In 2013, Ron Gilad designed the Flos Goldman Table Lamp. One-of-a-kind desk lamp. Thin, and sleek, the design resembles The Bankers desk lamp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marco Zanuso , 1963<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Oluce Zanuso or 275 Lamp was designed in 1963 by Marco Zanuso as desk lamp and gives both diffused and reflected light.
Today its base and arm are also available in white and nut brown.
Marc Zanuso, was an Italian architect and designer and his lamp, named after him, has stood the test of time in its timeless shape. The schematic behind the idea of the lamp makes it multifaceted so that it can be used in a setting which is not particularly an office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lamp is available in two different colors, white, or nut brown. The colors can be seen on the base and on the arm, but the dome, however remains as a white illumination in both of the deviations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lamp, produced nearly fifty years later in 2013, has a glossy opaline diffuser and a metal structure. The light is powered by an on and off power switch and is available in both a diffused and a reflected light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
