Saffo Karakter

The Saffo lamp was designed in 1966 by Italian architect, sculptor and designer Angelo Mangiarotti. Its spectacular design, eye-catching whether switched on or off, has made it a coveted collector's item. 

Saffo Karakter

Its design reflects a dual talent for design and craftsmanship. The Saffo lamp is made from mouth-blown glass and diffuses a soft light that enhances the natural beauty of the glass.

The white glass at the bottom elegantly conceals the light source. As it rises, the mushroom forms and the white glass becomes transparent, allowing the light to shine through.

Angelo Mangiarotti

Italian architect, sculptor and designer Angelo Mangiarotti was born in Milan in 1921. Mangiarotti is quoted as saying “Happiness comes from honesty”. 

A quote that alludes to his holistic approach to design, rooted in the firm conviction that architecture was a practical discipline and industrial design was the expression of refined craftsmanship. 

He wanted each individual material to be respected and used appropriately and honestly. Beyond his many architectural feats, Mangiarotti's work includes a wide range of creative projects from sculpture to products and lighting. 

Over the course of his career, he has held lecturing positions at several renowned design and architecture schools in Italy and abroad, won numerous design and architecture awards, and his work has been included in exhibitions and collections at some of the world's leading art and design institutions such as the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Triennale Design Museum in Milan and Gallery MA in Tokyo.
