ARTEMIDE table lamp TIZIO 35 (Black - Aluminium, technopolymer)

Artemide Tizio 35 lamp: a system of counterweights in balance, rooted in Design history.

The Tizio lamp is one of the most famous pieces by the Artemide brand and of Italian Design, created by Master Richard Sapper. For fifty years, it has represented excellence in table lighting, positioning itself as a true timeless masterpiece in the market. This revolutionary product maintains its contemporary appeal and its unparalleled functionality.
The true essence of the Tizio lies in the revolutionary articulation structure, always kept in perfect balance by an ingenious system of counterweights. This very structure not only supports the lamp head but also powers the light source, originally a very low-voltage halogen bulb, now also an efficient LED. The intelligence and elegance with which Richard Sapper combined these elements have made the Tizio an absolute icon in the sector.

History and dimensions: differences between Tizio 35 and Tizio 50.

Originally, the denomination of the Tizio 35 and Tizio 50 models was strictly linked to the maximum power supported by the halogen bulbs of the time, indicating the limit of 35 or 50 Watts. Today, the main distinction between the two models lies in their size. Although the Design remains identical in both products, the Tizio 35 was conceived to be more discreet and compact, adapting perfectly to smaller spaces. Conversely, the Tizio offers a larger visual scale, ensuring a more marked aesthetic impact and optimal coverage for wider desks or environments that require a bolder Design statement.

A world-famous masterpiece.

Its historical importance, its Design, and its artistic value are confirmed by its presence in the most prestigious permanent collections worldwide. The Tizio is part of the Twentieth Century Design Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Design Collection at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) also in New York, and is exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. In Italy, it is a fundamental piece in the Permanent Historical Itinerary of the Leonardo da Vinci National Museum of Science and Technology in Milan and the Permanent Museum of Italian Design 1945-1990 at the Triennale di Milano, in addition to being present at the Civica Galleria d’Arte Moderna of Gallarate.
In terms of awards, it won the coveted Compasso D’Oro / ADI Selection in 1979, the Gold Medal at BIO 9 in 1981, and the Casamica award in 1973, consolidating its status as a true Design legend. Choosing the Tizio lamp means investing not only in a piece of Italian Design history but also in a technologically advanced lighting solution that guarantees high-quality light performance in line with Artemide's standards of sustainability and innovation.
