Fase Madrid, model GALÁXIA, Table Lamp by Ingo Maurer, 1971

This Table Lamp, inspired by the shape of a coil spring, is a striking design from Fase and dates to 1971, as determined by catalog records. The lamp draws clear inspiration from the iconic "Spirale" designed by Ingo Maurer for Design M in the mid-1960s. With its sculptural form and substantial size, standing 57 cm in height and featuring a 29 cm diameter globe, it’s both a functional light source and an artistic statement.
 
The base, composed of a gleaming chrome coil, gives the lamp its unique and bold character, adding a sense of movement and modernity. The large opaline glass globe softly diffuses light, creating a warm and inviting ambiance that complements the lamp’s futuristic aesthetic. However, the chroming on the coil shows some oxidation marks, as visible in the images, which lend an authentic vintage patina to the piece and reflect its age and history.
 
While the design takes cues from Maurer’s work, it demonstrates Fase’s talent for crafting striking, high-quality pieces that resonate with the bold design ethos of the early 1970s. Highly collectible and visually impactful, this table lamp is a testament to Fase’s ability to blend innovation with timeless design, making it a perfect centerpiece for any modern or retro-inspired interior.
