Gino Sarfatti Model #1063 floor lamp for Flos / Astep.
 
Designed in 1954, this is an authorized Astep/Flos re-edition by Alessandro Sarfatti, grandson of Gino Sarfatti, who applies his grandfather's scrupulous attention to detail and materials to offer a tightly curated selection of iconic lighting originally produced by Arteluce. Unused in original factory box.
 
The floor lamp was a true Avant Garde design at the time, and with its minimalistic silhouette, it continues to complement even the most modern setting. In Model 1063, Gino Sarfatti seeks to demonstrate the aesthetic value of a visible light source, the fluorescent tubular bulb (now LED), and more luminaires and models followed the first ornamental example in the subsequent years.
 
Emitting direct or reflected light, the floor lamp is composed of a thin painted aluminum tube, which houses the light source. The aluminum base is balanced by an aluminum box, a rounded rectangular section that contains the power supply. The two parts are connected via two steel rods arranged in an unusual off-center position that appears to estrange them from each other while at the same time lending the luminaire a sense of equilibrium in a seemingly magical way. In the re-issue, the original fluorescent tube has been replaced with an LED module with variable temperature regulation as well as a light dimming function.
