Stilnovo 2133 wall lamps made in Italy 1956

Stilnovo

Milano 1946 – 1988
Lighting manufacturer

This rare pair of adjustable Model 2133 wall lamps, designed and manufactured by Stilnovo in Italy in 1956, represents the first production run of the 2133 model, which underwent several iterations over time. In our opinion, this early version is the most refined and elegant. The lamps feature brass arms that have developed a beautiful patina, giving them a rich, aged character, along with adjustable black-finished shades.

These wall lamps are distinguished by their high-quality details, such as the hexagonal knobs on the front and the unique shape of the shades when viewed from the side. Their adjustable design makes them ideal as bedside lights, allowing for multiple positions and primarily providing indirect light, which creates a soft, ambient atmosphere. Both lamps still retain their original Stilnovo stickers and are Stilnovo-stamped on the wall plates, confirming their authenticity. Additionally, the elegantly placed on/off switch on the side of each lamp adds both practicality and style. The lamps are in very good, fully original condition, with the brass arms showing a lovely patina developed over time. Please note that this pair is priced and sold together as a set of two.
