FontanaArte™ Alicanto Floor Lamp - Gold/White, Glass/Painted Metal

Description

Its name comes from Chilean mythology, Alicanto, anocturnal bird that is said to live in the Atacama Desert andhas the peculiarity of feeding exclusively on gold and silver.According to the fable, its feeding makes it unable to fly butmakes its wings glow with golden reflections. The miners,seeing its light in the dark, would follow it and thus find gold.It was therefore the image of this bird capable oflighting up the night, about to take flight but firmly seton the ground, that suggested the inspiration when it cameto finding a name for a new lamp characterized by a slightforward imbalance: its arched shape is all projected to carrythe light, almost as if to «extend» it, as far as possible.An elegant and sophisticated fitting, Alicanto is acontemporary lamp, solid and light, with an innovativedesign that is capable of adapting to cutting edge furnishingswithout departing from the FontanaArte philosophy, inbalance between art and industry, suspended betweenclarity and durability.Alicanto is a floor and wall lamp; the latter version is availablein two sizes.The product can also be supplied Casambi / Dali ready.
