About the Item

An exceptional example of late Italian modernist lighting, the "Sirrah" AM/AS table lamp was designed in 1969 by the visionary duo Franco Albini and Franca Helg for Sirrah. This sculptural piece embodies the radical clarity and architectural precision that defined Albini and Helg’s collaborative output. Constructed in chromed and enameled steel, the lamp’s minimalist structure is centered around a boldly hemisphere shaped shade, which appears to float above the weighted cylindrical base. The form is both graphic and poetic, balancing industrial materials with a restrained elegance. This rare model—produced only in limited quantities—reflects the designers’ ongoing exploration of form, light, and space during the late 1960s, a period marked by innovation and experimentation in Italian design. Designers: Franco Albini & Franca Helg Manufacturer: Sirrah Year: 1969 Origin: Italy Materials: Chromed and enameled steel Condition: Very good vintage condition; light patina consistent with age Rewiring available upon request A collectible and museum-worthy piece that makes a refined statement in any modernist interior. Ideal for collectors of Italian postwar design and fans of Albini’s iconic architectural minimalism.
