Description

Arredoluce is a historic Italian lighting company, founded in Milan by Angelo Lelli in the early 1950s, and a key player in the production of Italian design lamps through the 1980s. The brand is renowned for its pioneering approach to lighting design, combining technical innovation, functionality, and a strong modernist aesthetic.

Between the 1950s and 1970s, Arredoluce produced some of the most iconic mid-century Italian lamps, characterized by the refined use of brass, painted metal, glass, and articulated structures, often developed in collaboration with leading designers and architects. During the 1980s, the company evolved its production while maintaining high craftsmanship and a coherent design identity.

Angelo Lelli (1911–1979), founder and creative force behind Arredoluce, was a visionary Italian designer and entrepreneur and a central figure in post-war Italian lighting design. His lamps are distinguished by advanced engineering solutions, including articulated arms, counterweights, and precision brass details, seamlessly combining functionality and sculptural form. Lelli’s work defined the identity of Arredoluce, establishing it as a benchmark in 20th-century Italian design.

Today, Arredoluce lamps are considered icons of historic Italian design, highly sought after by collectors, interior designers, and enthusiasts of vintage and mid-century modern lighting.
