About the Item

Pair of Up & Up Italian Sculptural Gray Marble Architectural Table Lamps, Circa 1975–1985 Pair of Up & Up Italian Sculptural Gray Marble Architectural Table Lamps by the renowned Italian marble manufacturer Up & Up, founded in Massa, Tuscany, in 1969. Celebrated for transforming Carrara marble into boldly contemporary furnishings and lighting, Up & Up became one of Italy's foremost producers of architect-designed stone furniture during the 1970s and 1980s. Their work bridged the disciplines of sculpture, architecture, and functional design, collaborating with internationally recognized architects while pioneering innovative methods of carving solid marble into refined geometric forms. These substantial table lamps exemplify the firm's sculptural philosophy. Each lamp is carved from a single monumental block of beautifully figured gray marble, displaying subtle white veining, natural mineral inclusions, and soft cloud-like movement unique to the stone. The composition is defined by two deeply carved opposing semi-cylindrical recesses and a dramatic arched opening below, creating a sophisticated dialogue between solid mass and negative space. Every angle presents a different architectural silhouette, allowing light and shadow to continually redefine the form. The restrained geometry recalls the architectural minimalism of the late Modern movement while anticipating the sculptural vocabulary embraced by Postmodern Italian design. Their monolithic presence makes them equally compelling as functional lighting or as freestanding marble sculptures. Each lamp has been professionally rewired with new French wiring, fitted with quality brass-finished sockets and clear cords, and is ready for immediate use. Weighing approximately 32 pounds each, they possess exceptional stability and the unmistakable presence of finely carved natural stone. An increasingly scarce model by one of Italy's most respected marble ateliers, these lamps represent the intersection of fine craftsmanship, architectural design, and collectible twentieth-century Italian decorative arts. Dimensions Marble column: 15.5 inches high × 6 inches wide × 6 inches deep. Overall height to top of socket: 22.5 inches. Weight: approximately 32 pounds each. Condition Professionally rewired with new French wiring. Ready to place and use. Minor surface wear, small edge abrasions, and natural variations to the marble consistent with age and careful use. Presents beautifully.
