Rare Set Of

Rare set of "TESSUTO" lights designed by Massimo Vignelli. It is indeed exceptional to be able to combine the three sizes of these lamps, moreover, having their travertine bases with the cutout allowing you to embed the three lights according to your desires in order to create an original set. Massimo Vignelli was born in Milan in 1931. In 1949, he participated in the International Congress of Modern Architecture in Bergamo where he met the best European architects of the time. He studied architecture at the Polytechnic in Milan and at the IUAV University in Venice. It was there that he met Paolo Venini who offered to design lamps in blown glass. He settled permanently in the United States in 1964 and made himself known throughout the world in the field of graphics, design and architecture, in the professional company of his wife Lella. In 2003, the couple received the very prestigious “LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT” award from the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. He died in New York in 2014.
