Elio Martinelli “Serpente” Table Lamp, Italy, 1960s–70s
The iconic “Serpente” table lamp by Elio Martinelli is a celebrated example of Italian Mid-Century Modern design. Its sculptural form combines a white-lacquered metal base with a curved white opal methacrylate shade.
Martinelli designed the lamp with a rotating arm, allowing the shade to swivel and direct the light. The fluid silhouette and innovative construction reflect the experimental spirit of Italian lighting design during the 1960s.
Elegant and functional, the Martinelli Luce Serpente lamp has become an enduring design classic. Its clean white finish and organic shape work beautifully in both Mid-Century and contemporary interiors.
