Vintage Zelig Table / Floor Lamp by Walter Monici for Lumina, Italy, 1980s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Wonderful and multifunctional table/floor lamp from Lumina -Italy.
Model Zelig by designer Walter A.Monici, 1980s.
This lamp, equipped with halogen technology, impresses with its incredible versatility, quality and timelessness.
Anyone who is interested in mechanics and the interaction of the lever arm, joints and balance will recognize the ingeniousness of this lamp. The basic principle goes back to the human arm, which, alongside Monici, George Carwandine implemented with the Anglepoise lamp and Hadrill & Horstman with the Simplus lamp in the 1930s. Every movement of an arm automatically results in a counter-movement of the counterweight, so that the lamp is always balanced and maintains its position without tipping forward or backward. It is very easy to adjust. This means you can set the arms in an adjustable bent position, as well as completely stretched out, for example. Each of these adjusted positions is mounted on the base so that it can rotate freely, and thanks to the balance it holds every position without having to adjust wing screws or similar like with other lights. In addition, the lampshade can be rotated inward, as can the lamp head attached to the upper arm. All of these elegantly used joints and bearings make the lamp multifunctional.
The base, which contains the electrics such as transformers etc., is designed in an optical cone shape. However, one half seems to be "missing". At this point the counterweight can slide freely past the base.
You can switch the light into two light levels.
The quality is also convincing..., satin black painted aluminum, valuable in terms of material and timeless in color.
Inscribed on the underside with Lumina, Zelig and A.Monici.
Max height with vertical arm adjustment ~ 133 cm
Length forearm + upper arm including umbrella approx. 115 cm
Base diameter 18.5 cm

Well-maintained and good original condition with a slight age-related patina

The light can be switched to two levels. Of course both work.
