sold / Italian floor lamp with flexible arm, brass, by Catellani & Smith, 1980s.

According to the 1994 catalogue 'Illuminazioni italiane, catalogo generale' this floor lamp goes by the name ‘Nodo terra’, Italian for ‘earth knot.’ It was designed by Enzo Catellani in the early nineties. This version of the design dates back to the 1992-93 productions, for it consists of its original metal base that was used in the first line of production. The name Nodo terra refers to the flexibility of the arm of the lamp, which can be bent into a knot.
