B.Bulb table lamp

The history of the "Bulb" table- and floor lamp is as simple as it is ingenious. Maurer explains that he was in Venice on business and returned to his simple hostel with a bottle of red wine after a wonderful meal. There, a 'naked' light bulb illuminated his room. "It was like a coup de foudre ('love at first sight')!" recalls Maurer. Still cheeky, he sketched a lamp and the next day looked for a manufacturer on Murano, who produced an initial design for the glass within a day and a half. Back in Munich, a pressed metal base was added to the glass. "The Bulb was born!"

"The quality of the light is more important to me than the form and so I concentrated on that," says Ingo Maurer , commenting on his work as one of the most important light designers.Designer of the 20th century. His lighting designs are preceded by the iconic luminaire "Bulb", which was created in 1966 by a twist of fate and which has accompanied Ingo Maurer throughout his life: "The light bulb has always been my leitmotif, right from the start."
