Designer: Ingo Maurer
Maker: Ingo Maurer [ Germany ]
Designed: 1992
Material: Frosted glass, goose feathers, brass, plastic
Dimensions: W 35 x D 20 x H 30 cm
Quantity: One only
Condition: Very good
Well kept. Minimal wear, the result of careful use, and nothing that takes away from the piece.
Ingo Maurer spent fifty years in Munich making light out of things nobody else thought to use, and the Lucellino is the one everybody knows — a bare frosted bulb given a pair of wings and left to it. He never explained it any further than that.
The wings are real goose feathers, wired individually by hand and set at a different angle on every lamp, so no two come out alike. Beneath them, two slim brass legs and a white disc base, with the red and clear wires left visible as part of the drawing. Switched on it does one thing beautifully: a small warm glow in a corner that people notice from across a room.
What makes it hold up is that nothing is hidden. Bulb, wire, feather and brass, all doing their job in the open, which is a much harder thing to get right than it looks. Comes in its original box. Retails new at $1,200.
Photographed honestly, in natural light, exactly as it is. No surprises when your new favourite thing arrives.
Everything we sell is 100% authentic. No reproductions, no replicas.
