Gianfranco Frattini 'Aspide' Table Lamp for GUBI

 

Named after the Italian word for ‘asp’, for its serpentine form, the Aspide was designed as a versatile task lamp that may be adjusted to create either direct light for work or reading or turned toward the wall to create a softer, ambient glow. Originally designed in 1970 and re-editioned by GUBI in 2023, the Aspide is executed in chrome-plated swiveling tubes to provide a stunning and playful accent to any interior.

 

Frattini's ingenious design includes hidden counterweight in the base for stability. The upper part of the lamp’s head is fitted with tiny perforations that distribute light upwards. A coating of chrome gives Aspide a mirror-like surface that further reflects the light. The Aspide is an example of Frattini's design principle that glamor and whimsy can coexist in a single object.
