Achille Castiglioni: Achille Castiglioni (Italian pronunciation: [aˈkille kastiʎˈʎoːni]; 16 February 1918 – 2 December 2002) was an Italian architect and designer of furniture, lighting, radiograms and other objects. As a professor of design, he advised his students "If you are not curious, forget it. If you are not interested in others, what they do and how they act, then being a designer is not the right job for you."
Absolutely, stunning and such an exceptional piece.
An amazing piece of art presented in the form of a table lamp.
