Cassina
Palpebra Table Lamp
Price € 494.00
True to its name, Palpebra is a table lamp whose aesthetic evokes the part of the eye that occasionally hides and reveals the iris, closing or opening. Ico Parisi's design for Cassina serves precisely this purpose, creating an object that can be hidden or revealed as needed, modulating the light intensity released by this table lamp. Recalling the movement of the eye, an engineered and miniaturized rotation system creates an interesting play of light and shade. Ideal for bedrooms, Palpebra also lends itself very well to a variety of contexts, offering aesthetic variation in every situation.

Founded in 1927 by the brothers Cesare and Umberto in the heart of Brianza furniture, Cassina is one of the long-lived Made in Italy industrial design companies. From the early ‘30s, Cassina brothers identified the strong demand for home furnishings and interpreted in a far-sighted way the renewed taste of the new emerging classes. From this intuition, Cassina started a real revolution in the indoor furnishings design. Since then, the company has been pursuing a path of research and innovation, involving prestigious designers and architects in the study of new furnishings models. In the last few years the collaboration with Gio Ponti has begun. Thanks to this partnership were born the 646 chair, known as Leggera, and the subsequent model 699 or Superleggera.Read more
Designed by
Ico Parisi
Ico Parisi (1916-1996) was an important Italian architect and designer. Born in Palermo but moved to Como at an early age, he took his first steps in the studio of Giuseppe Terragni, a leading name in Italian Rationalism. A great lover of photography, he also took care of the first shots of his master's most famous project: the famous Casa del Fascio in Como. After the Second World War he founded the studio "La Ruota" with his wife Lusia Ariani, dealing with the design of homes and interiors, but also with the promotion of works of art by artist friends such as Bruno Munarie Fausto Melotti. In the 1950s, an intense collaboration with Cassina began, leading to the production of refined furnishings, emblematic of the style of the decade. In 1954 his "Pavilion of the Living Room" was awarded the Gold Medal at the 10th Milan Triennale, while in the following years he further deepened the relationship between interior design and art, which was always very dear to him, and carried out the his personal critique of consumerism and building speculation. Far from academic circles and for this reason often neglected by critics, he had in Gio Ponti an exceptional "fan", who constantly supported and encouraged him throughout his long career.Read more
