About the Item

This model “625” lamp is designed by Elio Martinelli in 1968 for Martinelli Luce. No words needed for this amazing space age mushroom lamp. The base is made of enameled metal with three E27 sockets inside. On top is a big white acrylic shade. All parts are original, and the lamp is in perfect condition. The lamp reflects Martinelli Luce’s early, heavy use of plastics (acrylic/methacrylate) and the brand’s interest in simple geometric volumes. Dimensions: 28.5"H x 21.5"D, in good condition, one has a bumb on the underside that you dont really notice! Height: 50 cm Width: 50 cm Depth: 50 cm Elio Martinelli (1921–2004) Elio Martinelli was an Italian designer from Lucca, Tuscany, whose work helped define the look of postwar Italian lighting. Trained in scenic design and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, he initially worked in his father’s lighting business before branching out on his own. His design approach was rooted in simplicity, geometry, and nature-inspired forms, while embracing new technologies and materials. In the 1960s he became one of the first Italian designers to experiment heavily with plastics like methacrylate and ABS resin, which allowed for futuristic shapes that metal or glass couldn’t easily achieve. Martinelli’s lamps—such as the Serpente (1965), the swiveling Cobra (1968), and the mushroom-like Model 625 (1968)—exemplify the organic yet rational aesthetic of the Space-Age era. His designs are now regarded as icons of mid-century Italian lighting, combining sculptural presence with everyday functionality. He continued designing into the early 2000s, leaving behind a legacy of innovation and experimentation.
