387 floor lamp
by Tito Agnoli for Oluce

Tito Agnoli ‘387’ floor lamp for Oluce. Designed in 1954, this ultra-refined design is now considered to be a key forerunner of minimalism. Executed in nickel plated metal and travertine base. This later production model features a detachable “Cornalux” glass element covering a 75 watt halogen bulb capable of directing beautifully diffused light in a highly precise manner. Light bulb can be rotated and adjusted up/down.

Trained as a painter Tito Agnoli enrolled in the Faculty of Architecture, where he graduated in 1959. In the early Fifties he was already carrying out an intense professional activity in the field of design. Several times recommended for the Compasso d’Oro Award, in 1986 he won the gold medal at the Neocon in Chicago. Some of his pieces are kept in the permanent collection of the MoMa in New York.
