info The little spotlight. In his most interesting interview, Gino Sarfatti places the small, metal spotlight among his most important works. It opens up a whole world of dynamics. Alone on a brass pole, it seems to be a typical bedside lamp that will not interrupt the sleep of a bedfellow. However, it soon becomes mobile, with a shape that allows it to be placed or hung from just about anywhere. [MOD. 136] is a forerunner, and it was available as early as 1940, even in a charming heart shape. The shape evolved, and the circle or heart became a simple triangle [MOD. 546]. It is all at once a bedside lamp, a portable lamp and a wall lamp. Other variations include small, well-screened supported lamps that can be placed on the bedside table [MOD. 585] or hung on the wall [MOD. 8].
