80s nesso lamp
Nesso Table Lamp by Giancarlo Mattioli for Artemide, Milan
An iconic piece of Italian design, this striking Nesso table lamp was designed in 1967 by Giancarlo Mattioli and produced by Artemide, Milan. Our example dates from the early 1980s and showcases the bold, sculptural form that has made the Nesso a timeless classic.
Crafted in moulded ABS resin, the lamp’s organic mushroom-like silhouette reflects the spirit of 1960s space-age design and remains one of Artemide’s most recognisable creations. Its distinctive domed shade not only makes a bold visual statement but also diffuses light beautifully, casting a warm, atmospheric glow.
This piece has been PAT tested for safety and is ready for immediate use in your home or workspace. A true collector’s item, the Nesso lamp is held in permanent collections of leading museums, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
A must-have for lovers of mid-century and modernist design.
