About the Item

Rare Model 622 Ceiling Light for Stilnovo, Italy, 1955 This pendant by Stilnovo, designed and manufactured in Italy in 1955, represents the restrained formal elegance and material refinement characteristic of the manufacturer's most considered work of the mid-century. The fixture is composed of an enameled sage/celadon green metal shade, its upper body tapering to a narrow neck from which a black cord descends. At the transition between shade and diffuser, a circumferential band of elongated perforations allows warm light to escape laterally, adding a secondary luminous register to the primary downward glow of the opaline milk glass globe below. The cord incorporates a black enameled ball-and-loop tension adjuster – a considered detail that elevates the suspension into an object in its own right. The Model 622 is among the more sought-after pendant forms in Stilnovo's mid-century catalogue, and examples retaining their original lacquer in this colorway are uncommon. Overall height: 65.5" Rewired for U.S. standards, the fixture accommodates 1x E26 bulb. We recommend using max. 60W or LED equivalent. Bulb not included. Only one available.

Stilnovo

Though Bruno Gatta founded Stilnovo way back in 1946, it is still one of the most instantly recognizable names in lighting. Gatta (1904–76) began his business in Milan, and, like many European creatives designing furniture and decor in the wake of World War II, he leaned toward the new wave of mass-market and streamlined styles. In fact, Stilnovo loosely translates to “new style” in Italian, and vintage Stilnovo chandeliers, floor lamps and other lighting have endured as a practical choice for those looking to bring innovative and forward-thinking design into their homes.

Soon after Stilnovo was established, Gatta’s lighting fixtures were applauded throughout Europe for their novel industrial materials as well as their unique yet functional shapes. Italy during the mid-20th century was completely revolutionary, and Bruno Gatta and Stilnovo’s head designer, Angelo Gaetano Sciolari, helped shape the era.

When the 1960s arrived, Stilnovo was experiencing such a boom that the company opened a new production plant in Lainate. One of the brand’s most famous pieces, Giovanni Luigi Gorgoni’s quirky 1965 Buonanotte spherical table lamp, became a best seller.

Gatta partnered with some of the most well-known names in design, including Ettore Sottsass, Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Joe Colombo and Gae Aulenti. Sottsass’s pieces for Stilnovo, including the 1977 Valigia four-legged table lamp, the 1968 Lampros chandelier and Manifesto ceiling light, and the Castiglionis’ 1957 Saliscendi pendant light fixtures are some of the brand’s most recognizable to date. In 1978, De Pas, D’Urbino and Lomazzi designed the Fante lamp with an adjustable reflector that playfully recalls a broad-brimmed hat.

Stilnovo’s designs, including Danilo and Corrado Aroldi’s flexible Periscope table lamp, were featured in the 1972 exhibition “Italy: The New Domestic Landscape” at the Museum of Modern Art. While Stilnovo continued to operate with new designer collaborations after Gatta’s death, it closed its doors in 1988.

Italian art director Massimo Anselmi acquired the company in 2012 and rereleased several of Stilnovo’s most celebrated pieces. Then in 2019, lighting giant Linea Light Group purchased Stilnovo and relaunched its classic designs with contemporary touches like LED lighting systems.
