Adam D Tihany & Joseph Mancini K6 'Wassily' Blown Glass Table Lamp for Foscarini.
 
Designed in 1985 by Adam D. Tihany & Joseph Mancini and produced by Foscarini, the Italian lighting firm founded in Venice on the legendary island of Murano, where generations of master glass blowers have skillfully used their unmatched imagination and skill to create the most innovative works of light into the modern era.  Inspired by the painterly works of Kandinsky and the ballet theater of the Bauhaus, the celebrated 'Wassily' series was conceived as illuminated sculptures rather than lamps, produced by composing solid forms in primary colors, held together by polished metal mountings. 
 
These are new old stock from an extremely limited run 20th anniversary re-edition that was recently discovered in the Foscarini warehouse, still new in box and retaining all their original packaging and contents. These iconic Memphis style lamps were fabricated using many of the same artisanal glass blowing techniques perfected over centuries, with thoughtful attention to detail, use of high quality materials and incomparable rigor and passion, resulting in a lamp that conveys emotions of timeless beauty.
