Three 'Cuboluce' items: two lamps and a vase
Cini & Nils, Cuboluce by Franco Bettonica and Mario Melocchi, Italy 1972
First version of Cuboluce, still produced in various versions. These two lamps have a squared grid, that acts as a light diffuser, one white and one black. The lamp with the black grid reveals the light while the other is opaque and the light filters only through the grid. Given the fame and the popularity of this lamp in its subsequent and current versions, these 1972 editions are a true rarity. The third item does not have a lamp but was offered in combination with the lights, as a vase.
