  • Post Modern Papillona 750 Floor Lamp by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Flos, 1975
    By Flos, Afra & Tobia Scarpa
    Located in San Diego, CA
    A very stylish and iconic vintage floor lamp designed by Tobia and Afra Scarpa. This is the Papillona lamp made in Italy by Flos in the 1970s. This is in amazing condition and has an amazing design that is typical of design by Tobia & Afra Scarpa. It is predominantly black lacquered metal, with red trim running through the centre and a textured glass shade. There is a dimmer built in halfway up the lamp shaft, and it takes halogen bulbs. This is a beautiful piece of art that would work in any mid century modern or post modern space. Brings in a pop of color with its red trim while still being subtle enough to work well in any bedroom, living room, or office space. Brings in a warm light that can be easily dimmed to set any space to your liking. Dimensions: 10"W x 10"D x 76"H About the Designer: Widely recognized as superstars of postmodern Italian design, husband-and-wife team Afra and Tobia Scarpa (1937–2011; b. 1935) collaboratively created chairs, sofas and other furniture that work equally well in both traditional and cutting-edge environments. Ranging from architecture and interior design to furniture and clothing, the Scarpas’ practice from its beginnings in the mid-1950s to the 21st century has included a diverse scope of projects combining new technology with thoughtful function and sculptural yet simple forms. Afra Bianchin and Tobia Scarpa met as architecture students at the Università Iuav di Venezia. In a class led by architect and furniture designer Franco Albini, they created their first collaborative piece, the Pigreco armchair, later produced with Gavina. After graduating in 1957, Tobia worked for Murano glass company Venini & Co. before the couple opened a studio in Afra’s hometown, Montebelluna, in 1960. (Tobia, the son of famed glass artist and architect Carlo Scarpa, was born in Venice.) For Afra and Tobia, a close collaborative process was pivotal to the success of their designs. The duo was also prolific — they designed for the most influential European manufacturers, including B&B Italia, Cassina, Knoll and FLOS. With respect to the latter, Afra and Tobia were among the legendary Italian lighting maker’s earliest collaborators, and their pioneering designs for the brand included the Papillon lamp...
