GRAVITA TABLE LAMP

by Antonio Macchi Cassia, 1969

Gravita by Stilnovo is a uniquely elegant table lamp designed by Antonio Macchi Cassia in 1969, combining metal with hand-blown Murano glass. The lamp features two dimmable LED bulbs. A particularly clever detail: the small metal sphere is magnetic and can be moved freely on the glass sphere. Design classics like the Gravita table lamp by Stilnovo are available as licensed design originals from TAGWERC.

Geometric shapes

The silhouette of the Gravita table lamp It is based on three combined geometric forms: a cylinder and two spheres. Gravita is the Italian word for gravity. And indeed, the Gravita table lamp has something weightless, something cosmic about it. One could almost think that the Gravita lamp served as a model for George Lucas when developing the droid character BB-8 from the Star Wars film series. An aluminum base, in which an LED light source is integrated, holds the perfectly formed, mouth-blown Murano glass sphere. A smaller, magnetic aluminum sphere is connected to the base by a coiled cable and contains the second LED light source.

Dimensions and application

Measuring 51.7 centimeters in height and 63.1 centimeters in depth, the glass sphere has a diameter of 40 centimeters. The LED bulbs deliver a combined output of 24 watts at a color temperature of 3,000 Kelvin, which corresponds to warm white light. The Gravita table lamp is powered by a 2.5-meter-long power cord. Its unique design makes it ideal as a desk and task light. Furthermore, Gravita provides focused lighting wherever aesthetics and targeted illumination are desired.
