STILNOVO MEGAFONO 9568, 9569 hanging lamp 12xE14

Description:

The STILNOVO MEGAFONO 9568, 9569 suspension lamp is not just a light source – it is a sculpture in space, designed during the golden era of Italian industrial design. This model, a faithful re-edition of the original 1958 project, brings the spirit of "Post-war Italy" to contemporary arrangements, combining it with the highest quality of modern craftsmanship. With an impressive diameter of nearly one meter and twelve light points, this lamp becomes a natural focal point, dominating the space with its refined form.

Noble materials: brass and galvanic gilding

What distinguishes original Stilnovo lighting from market competition is an uncompromising approach to materials. The lamp body and its arms are made of solid brass, which has undergone an advanced galvanic gilding process. The use of galvanization instead of standard lacquering guarantees extraordinary depth and warmth of the gold color, durability of the coating that does not tarnish or chip despite the passage of years, and a luxurious shine that corresponds with light in a unique way.

Construction and light: a spectacle of double emission

The name "Megafono" refers to the characteristic cone-shaped shades, resembling megaphones from the mid-20th century. In the 12-point version, the lamp offers a spectacular lighting effect thanks to the use of double light emission. Six shades are directed downwards, providing functional direct light, ideal for illuminating a table or a seating area. The remaining six shades are directed upwards, illuminating the ceiling and building a soft, atmospheric aura in the interior (indirect light), which optically enlarges and heightens the room.

Choose your finish variant

The product is available in two refined color versions of the shades, which define the final character of the interior.

• Black – features shades in deep black, creating a strong, dramatic contrast with the gold body – an ideal choice for loft interiors, modern apartments, and glamour style arrangements.
• Ivory – offers shades in a subtle ivory tone, giving the lamp lightness and classic elegance, perfectly fitting into bright living rooms, vintage style, and Mid-Century Modern.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What bulbs are best for the Megafono lamp?

We recommend using LED bulbs with an E14 thread of the "Miniglobe" type (small ball P45) with a warm light color (2700K or 3000K). Filament bulbs (with a visible filament) will additionally emphasize the vintage character of the lamp and be consistent with its history.

Does the lamp provide a lot of light?

Yes, thanks to the use of as many as 12 light points, the lamp generates a large amount of light and can successfully serve as the main lighting. The use of double shades ensures that the light is evenly distributed throughout the room (up and down).

Can the suspension height of the Stilnovo Megafono lamp be adjusted?

Yes, the lamp has the possibility of adjusting the suspension height during installation. The chandelier is suspended on a steel cable and a power cord, which can be shortened to adapt the fixture to the height of the room.

How to clean brass elements?

Galvanically gilded elements should be cleaned exclusively with a soft, dry cloth (e.g., microfiber) to remove dust. Aggressive chemicals, alcohol, or rough sponges must be strictly avoided, as they could permanently damage the noble gold coating.

The offered product is a 100% original Stilnovo brand lamp, produced in Italy. It is an official re-edition of the 1958 project, manufactured maintaining original specifications and the highest quality standards for which Italian design is famous.
