Pair of "Mezzaluna" floor lamps by Bruno Gecchelin for Skipper, Italy, 1970

Like all pieces in Gecchelin's Gesto collection, these floor lamps are an example of simple and elegant design. The name choice becomes evident when looking at the lampshade. Featuring a distinctive concave groove along the curved side, the half-moon can be rotated to project light directly upwards or to the sides, and also dimmed according to the user's needs and desires. The lamp's height is adjustable thanks to the telescopic chrome pole, and the heavy, round white marble base ensures stability. Like all members of the Gesto family, Mezzaluna operates on indirect light, allowing it to be admired even when lit, without dazzling its groupies.
