In the early 1960’s Seguso produced a hand-blown Murano glass table lamp called the “Pineapple”, for the American lighting company Marbro. The lamp, as the name implied, resembled the tropical fruit with it's bulbous, patterned body and tapered neck, crowned by a ring of small dagger shaped leaves; ll a top a gilt-wood base.
The pineapple form became a very popular Mid-Century Modern lamp design inspiring many other similar style lamps. But though these replicas might do away with the crown of leaves or change the finish on the base, the lamp's raised diamond pattern or Rigadin, refering to the decorative glass, characterized by it's subtle raised ribs, remained steadfast and forever connected Seguso’s original Pineapple lamp to those it inspired.
This elegant and modern pair of Murano glass lamps with its distinctive diamond pattern clearly derives inspiration from Seguso's "Pineapple. The crown of leaves has since transformed into a less figurative, more contemporary shape. The gilt-wood base replaced by smoky textured glass with and a touch of brass to add a shimmer of gold and hint of luxury. The body of the lamp is a deep smoke color glass accented by a contrasting teal blue glass at the base. The pair's sophisticated aesthetic mixed with a touch of retro kitsch makes them ideal for almost every interior style. (Lamp shades not available)
