Daphine Table Lamp

Daphine Table Lamp by Tommaso Cimini for Lumina Italia.

The Daphine Table Lamp epitomizes Lumina's core essence. Its genesis is a brilliantly uncomplicated yet highly effective concept: a swivelling diffuser, a flexible arm consisting of two segments, and an electromechanical transformer atop a cylindrical base flanked by metallic caps. The lamp was first created in 1975 by Tommaso Cimini, in his modest workshop in Sedriano (Milan province), utilizing machines meticulously retrofitted for this very purpose.

The idea behind the design can be traced back to Tommaso Cimini's design philosophy—"Lots of light, not much lamp"—a principle that remains at the heart of all products bearing Lumina's prestigious name.

With a rich history of production and widespread application, the Daphine lamp has proven its versatility in an array of public and private settings. From adorning reading desks in libraries and enhancing the ambience of pianos to gracing jewellery display counters and prestigious fashion brand storefronts, the Daphine lamp has demonstrated its adaptability.

Undoubtedly, the Daphine stands as a 'lighting design icon,' a distinction it has earned over the years. Its presence in esteemed collections across the globe, including those of prominent design and contemporary art museums like the Brooklyn Museum and Judd Foundation in New York, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the Neue Sammlung in Munich, and the Triennale in Milan, further solidifies its iconic status.
