I Ricchi Poveri Bzzzz Table Lamp
Ingo Maurer spent decades treating light as a medium for poetry, and the Bzzzz lamp distills that sensibility into a single, memorable gesture. A handmade red aluminum dragonfly alights on a bare halogen bulb, perfectly still yet full of implied motion. The image is simultaneously absurd and precise.
Beneath the dragonfly, a slender brass stem rises from a weighted steel base, with a red electrical cable tracing the stem in deliberate counterpoint. Every element is chosen for its visual rhythm, not merely its function. The piece belongs to the I Ricchi Poveri collection, a body of work Maurer conceived around the tension between the humble and the extravagant, ordinary materials elevated through imagination rather than cost.
- Handmade red aluminum dragonfly
- Halogen light source
- Brass stem, steel base
- Red electrical cable detail
- Dimmable
Maurer founded his Munich studio in 1966 and became one of the most singular voices in twentieth-century lighting design. His work resists easy categorization, drawing equally from fine art, theater, and craft traditions. The Bzzzz lamp carries that irreverence without sacrificing rigor.
