Flos 265 Wall Lamp 1973 Large Swing-Arm Light. Flos Model 265 wall lamp by Paolo Rizzatto. The Model 265 lamp is our favorite swing-arm lamp! The minimalist Model 265 wall lamp was designed by Paolo Rizzatto in 1973 for Flos. This lamp is part of the Stardust Modern Design Icon Collection. Designed early in his career, Model 265, a swiveling swing-arm wall-mounted light is considered one of Paolo Rizzatto's purist masterpieces. In particular, it is its sparing use of materials and austere design that make the Model 265 lamp so fascinating. Paolo Rizzatto's Model 265 lamp shows how far it is possible to push the mantra of simplicity and purity, and still achieve a result that is aesthetically pleasing.

The 265 lamp by Paolo Rizzatto provides a unique solution for wall-mounted lighting with its ingenious design that combines form with function. Merging the best of industrial engineering and sculptural grace, the pared-down Paolo Rizzatto Model 265 lamp is a design icon unlike any other. Consisting of a single metal rod that extends almost 7 feet from a wall-mounted vertical bracket, the lamp is refreshingly devoid of a base that would otherwise occupy precious floor space. The light source can be positioned where you need it thanks to its pivoting system located in the wall bracket. A simple yet practical on/off switch is located within easy reach on the diffuser. The Flos 265 lamp is a functional solution for living rooms, bedrooms, alcoves or office spaces where lighting is needed. Model 265 is minimalist with clean lines but impressively versatile and elegant at the same time. Its 80 inches long electrical cord has a wall plug so plug it in any wall outlet and you are ready to go. Since Model 265 uses an incandescent light source; you could put it on an external wall dimmer (for example with a Lutron incandescent wall dimmer). The 265 lamp is a favorite of designers and architects and a Stardust Staff Pick. And for good reason: it's a beautiful design icon that never goes out of style. The Model 265 lamp is made by Flos in Italy.

Paolo Rizzatto was trained as an architect at the Politecnico di Milano, one of the world's leading universities for architects and designers. And Paolo Rizzatto's background in architecture is obvious when you observe the clean-cut lines of the Model 265 lamp; from the diffuser to the shade...it's all in the details.
