Black Scintilla table lamp, designed in 1984 by Piero Castiglioni for Fontana Arte.

The structure is made from black die-cast anodized aluminium. In addition to aesthetic beauty, the ribbed surface prevents heat dissipation problems.

This low voltage halogen table lamp contains two small halogen bulbs. The transformer is integrated in the elegant base of the lamp.

This black Scintilla table lamp is in very good vintage condition with minimal traces of usage.
