eBay watch: Harvey Guzzini 1970s tulip-base table lamp

Guz

An interesting design that's certain to be popular on eBay, this Harvey Guzzini 1970s tulip-base table lamp.

The rarer Guzzini designs are always sought after and this is likely to be one. The sellers believes it is rare and I've not seen one like it myself. It is a Guzzini – the label is still on  it, on the white inner of the perspex shade, which is a 'caramel' colour on the outside. The base is brushed steel.

According to the seller, it is in 'excellent condition' and 'perfect working order', with three bulbs required for full illumination. If you want it, bidding right now is at £38.25.

eBay watch: A pair of 1970s Guzzini Sirio space age table lamps

Sirio

Not just one lamp, this auction is for a pair of Guzzini Sirio space age table lamps.

Designed back to the 1970s (as you might have guessed) and the work of design duo Lampa and Brazoli for Guzzini, each lamp is comprised of two half-spheres, spaced slightly apart and held together by chrome 'bolts'. They even fix to the wall, with the auction including original clamps for that, said to be 'rare'.

Condition is 'good', with no cracks in the lucite and just minor traces of use. Right now, the price for the two is just 62 pence.

Guzzini Space Age style Biscotto container


Guzzini

We've featured many of Guzzini's products before and their products which all have a definite space age feel. This biscotto container is no exception. 

Made from moulded plastic in that classic 1970s shade of orange, it measures just over 20cm diameter and looks like it could hold a lot more than biscotti. Put it out next to Guzzini's classic Stella ice bucket and you can easily add a 1960s/70s look to any home. 

The container costs £15.96.

eBay watch: 1970s Guzzini iGuzzini table lamp

Guz1

I probably don't need to tell you the era of this Guzzini iGuzzini table lamp, the design pretty much tells you.

Yes, we're in the space age era of the early 1970s, with a dome shade that's hinged on both sides to attach to a curved base, with both shade and base made of sheet metal with a white painted finish. That hinge also means you can adjust the amount of light given out too.

It's described as being in 'good' condition, with some age-related marks and scratches on the white lacquer, but not to the point of severely diminishing the design. Want it? Right now bidding is at £1.20.
