Influential designer in post-war Italy, Angelo Lelii was particularly renowned in the design of lighting. In 1947, he founded Arredoluce, his own lighting company which quickly gained influence by producing innovative and original luminaires. In addition to Lelii's designs, Arredoluce collaborates with fashionable designers of the time such as Gio Ponti and Ettore Sottsass.

The "Lucinella" table lamp was produced around 1950. Here, Lelii opposes the stability of the marble base and the mobility of the aluminum shade. The intertwining of the cable and the articulated brass arm brings an atypical character to this minimalist and elegant design.
