STILNOVO Periscopio floor lamp 131/197cm E27 white, black, red

Description:

Description: STILNOVO Periscopio 9058, 9059, 9060, 9061, 9062, 9063 is a floor lamp designed in 1967 by brothers Danilo and Corrado Aroldi, and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the "Space Age" era. Today, thanks to the Stilnovo brand, it returns in an improved version, retaining its cult character and functionality that was ahead of its time. It is not just lighting – it is a manifesto of engineering precision and avant-garde aesthetics.

Concept: periscope functionality

The name of the lamp is not accidental. Periscopio alludes to a submarine periscope, offering the user almost unlimited freedom in directing the beam of light. Unlike traditional drafting lamps full of springs and visible screws, the Aroldi brothers opted for absolute minimalism. The secret of the construction is a flexible joint covered with reinforced rubber. It allows for smooth bending and rotation of the lamp head in any direction, mimicking the movement of a human joint. This innovative solution makes the lamp extremely plastic, and the adjustment mechanism becomes an integral part of the design, not just a technical element.

Modern technology in a classic form Solid construction:

The body made of tubular steel ensures extraordinary durability while maintaining visual lightness. The whole structure is set on a stable, compact base that guarantees balance even with the arm maximally extended.

Available color variants

The Periscopio lamp comes in three colors that define its character in an interior:

• White – 9058 / 9061: Subtle and discreet. Ideal for minimalist, Scandinavian interiors and bright office spaces where lighting is meant to complement the arrangement.
• Black – 9059 / 9062: Graphic and elegant. Perfectly fits into industrial, loft styles, and modern, masculine offices.
• Red – 9060 / 9063: Energetic and bold. A signature color of the 60s that introduces a vivid Pop Art accent to the interior.

Interior application

• Bedroom: A designer, standing alternative to a classic bedside lamp.

FAQ:

Is the Periscopio lamp good for reading?

Yes, it is one of the best reading lamps in its class. The flexible arm allows you to direct light perfectly onto a book, and the high CRI (90) ensures that your eyes do not get tired, and the text is high-contrast and clear.

How to care for the lamp's rubber joint?

Contemporary models use modern polymers resistant to aging and cracking. To maintain their aesthetics, simply wipe them with a damp cloth, avoiding strong chemical detergents.

Why is it worth investing in an original Stilnovo?

By buying the Periscopio model, you acquire a fragment of design history that gains value over time. Stilnovo is a brand that co-created the golden era of Italian design. Every lamp is made with attention to detail that cheap replicas do not possess.
