Description

Title: Post Modern Ernesto Gismondi "Sintesi Faretto" Wall Light for Artemide, 1975

Description: Original Ernesto Gismondi "Sintesi" wall lamp for Artemide, an iconic example of 1970s Post Modern Italian design. The lamp is sometimes cited as an early example of Memphis design. The name Sintesi—meaning "synthesis" in Italian—embodies the era's deep interest in blending art with industrial function. While the Sintesi collection originally featured a wide range of wall, ceiling, and table lamps, this particular piece is one original wall-mounted unit, offered in vintage condition, showcasing the timeless aesthetic and craftsmanship that defined the design movement of its time.
