Dania table lamp by Dario Tognon and Studio Celli for Artemide, 1960s

The Dania table lamp was designed by Dario Tognon in collaboration with Studio Celli for Artemide. The sculptural and organic model was forged in one piece cast aluminium painted white. After the introduction in 1969 Artemide produced the model for a few years only.
