LIGHT, TEXTURE & PURE ITALIAN ELEGANCE ✨
A rare set of Massimo Vignelli 259/2 wall lights, designed for Arteluce in 1964.
A striking expression of Italian modernism, the 259/2 combines a clean architectural aluminium structure with a cascading curtain of fine pearl-white textile threads. The contrast is what makes this design so powerful: rigid geometry meets softness and movement, transforming the light into an almost sculptural presence on the wall.
Part of Vignelli’s modular lighting series for Arteluce, the large double version is particularly impressive and rarely seen. We currently have six examples available, all preserved in fully original condition with their original Arteluce labels still present. The fringes have been carefully cleaned while retaining the authenticity of these remarkable 1960s pieces.
An exceptional and highly decorative design by one of the great masters of 20th-century Italian design.
Available in pairs.
