About the Designer:
Cini Boeri (1924–2020) was a pioneering Italian architect and industrial designer. After collaborating with Gio Ponti and Marco Zanuso, she established her own practice, producing iconic designs for major brands including Arteluce, Arflex, and Knoll. Boeri’s work, known for its blend of human-centered design and elegant simplicity, is featured in major international museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic, museum-quality piece of Italian mid-century modern lighting by one of the most influential female designers of the 20th century.
