Hebi Lamp by Isao Hosoe for Valenti, Design 1970

Designed by Hosoe and brought to life by Valenti in 1970, the Hebi lamp stands as a true 20th-century design icon. "Hebi," Japanese for "snake," perfectly encapsulates this lamp's design essence. The lamp showcases a pliable metal tube enveloped in PVC, offering the flexibility to twist and turn in various directions. Additionally, the light shade is rotatable, providing infinite adjustability to the illumination. This renders the Hebi lamp not just functional but also remarkably playful and sculptural.
This example is in excellent (almost unused) condition.
