Zaccagnini - Table lamp (1) - Lunar sculpture from the 70s - Ceramic
"Sculpture - Lunare" lamp by Zaccagnini & sons, Florence, 1970s.
"In the bustling Florence of the 1970s, the emerging bourgeoisie was fascinated by the idea of transforming their homes into havens of style and sophistication. It was a time of creative fervor, in which design trends merged with art, creating a unique combination of functionality and aesthetics.
On a summer evening, the Bacci family, one of the wealthiest families in the neighborhood, hosted a dinner in their elegant living room. While the guests enjoyed the company and the delicious dishes prepared by Mrs. Bacci, their gazes were inevitably drawn to an imposing lamp that dominated the corner of the room.
It was the "Lunar sculpture" lamp from the Zaccagnini company, an imposing ceramic sculpture that seemed to exude an aura of mystery and sophistication. The Baccis were among the first to purchase it, attracted by its uniqueness and its ability to transform the surrounding space into a work of art.
The lamp was not just a lighting object, but a true symbol of status and refined taste. Every time guests crossed the threshold of the Bacci house, they were struck by the beauty and grandeur of the Zaccagnini lamp, which gave a theatrical and evocative atmosphere to the surrounding environment.
For the middle class of the time, owning a "sculpture" lamp from the Zaccagnini company was more than a simple purchase of furniture; it was an assertion of social status and a tribute to the bold and innovative aesthetics of the time. And so, the "Space age" lamp continued to shine in the Baccis' living room, a silent witness to their passion for design and aspiration for a life of luxury and refinement. "
