Flos - Table lamp Snoopy - Blue - Carrare marble - Designer Pier Giacomo Castiglioni

Flos Table lamp Blue Metal. Dimensions: L 39.4 cm x H 36.9 cm. The Snoopy lamp, an icon reinvented... Collectors and design enthusiasts beware: the iconic Snoopy table lamp, designed in 1967 by the famous brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, is now available in a brand-new Navy blue color. This elegant hue echoes a shade already used by the Castiglioni brothers in 1966 for their Sciuko lamp, also published by Flos. This contemporary reinterpretation of the Snoopy lamp confirms its status as a timeless classic, while adding a modern touch to its legendary design. A true work of art, the Snoopy lamp is part of the permanent collection of New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), a privilege reserved for objects that have marked the history of 20th-century design. Snoopy is thus recognized as an iconic piece that transcends its utilitarian function to establish itself as a true cultural icon. The Snoopy Lamp is a direct homage to Snoopy, the mischievous dog from Charles M. Schulz's famous Peanuts comic strip. This humorous wink illustrates the Castiglioni brothers' ability to blend creativity, form and function, while adding a touch of humor to their designs. The Metal diffuser, with its generous, rounded lines, is instantly reminiscent of Snoopy's head. Snoopy's silhouette is instantly recognizable: a slightly sloping base in Carrare marble, contrasting elegantly with the wide diffuser in lacquered metal. This combination of luxurious, refined materials gives the Lamp a harmonious balance between aesthetics and functionality. The use of Carrara marble, often associated with classical sculpture, lends a timeless dimension to the Lamp, while the colored metal diffuser adds a contemporary touch. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Snoopy also stands out for its technological advance for its time. The Lamp's base incorporates a tactile brightness control system, a rare innovation in 1967. This technical detail underlines the Castiglioni's desire to push back the boundaries of design, fusing art and technology. Since its creation, the Snoopy Lamp has evolved while remaining true to its original design. Although the initial version was distinguished by its Black Lampshade, over the years the lamp has come in a variety of colors, offering contemporary design enthusiasts more daring and varied versions. This capacity for perpetual reinvention testifies to the Lamp's durability and timelessness. > Flash sale: special price for a limited time only.
