Bitossi ceramic lamp

Bitossi ceramic lamp base with a bulbous, double-gourd form and a strongly sculptural profile. The body is finished in a rich, metallic gold glaze with a hammered or slightly irregular surface that catches the light, while the neck and foot are in a contrasting textured off‑white or stone-like glaze that emphasizes the lamp’s volume and gives it a more architectural feel. 

The activity of the Bitossi family started in 1921 for the will of Guido Bitossi with the establishment of “Manifattura Ceramica Cav. The production continues with the collaboration of leading figures who were able to introduce an innovative cultural artistic sensibility. More than 7000 original pieces starting from the 50’s, were collected and filed in the “Bitossi Industrial Archive”;

A never ending formal research and the skilled hands of ceramicist masters led to the development of the creations of Aldo Londi who was Art Director at Bitossi Ceramiche for more than 40 years.
