About Aspide Table Lamp
Aspide Table Lamp by Gianfranco Frattini. Designed in Italy, 1970 for GUBI.
Developed in 1970, the Aspide Table Lamp showcases Gianfranco Frattini’s ability to merge playful form with practical innovation. Named after the Italian word for "asp," the lamp features a serpentine silhouette and a gleaming metal finish that lends it a sculptural, almost jewel-like presence. While distinctly modern in appearance, its materials and geometry reflect the refined industrial aesthetics of its time.
Conceived as a highly versatile task light, the Aspide can be manually adjusted to suit a variety of functions. Both the neck and head rotate 350 degrees, allowing for focused directional light when needed or a softened ambient glow when turned toward a wall. This dual functionality underscores Frattini’s sensitivity to both spatial dynamics and user intent.
Bold in character yet measured in design, the Aspide Table Lamp remains a striking example of Italian lighting from the postwar era. It reflects Frattini’s continued pursuit of elegance, adaptability, and technical clarity within modern interiors.
