Pair of Flos "Miss Sissi" Table Lamps by Philippe Starck – Iconic Blue Edition (1991)The Story of an IconStep into the world of postmodern design with the Miss Sissi table lamp, a true "cult" object designed by the legendary Philippe Starck for Flos in 1991. More than just a lamp, Miss Sissi is a witty, contemporary tribute to the classic 1920s lampshade archetype. Starck took a traditional silhouette and transformed it into an industrial masterpiece using high-tech polymers, making it one of the most recognizable pieces of 90s Italian lighting design.Design & AtmosphereThis auction features a stunning pair in a vibrant, saturated Blue. When lit, the translucent polycarbonate diffuser doesn't just shade the light; it "tames" it, tinting the entire surrounding atmosphere with a soft, ethereal blue glow. The structure features the signature "stitched" detail along the stem, an ironic nod to traditional leather-bound lamps, executed in modern industrial materials.Technical Excellence & MaterialsThe Miss Sissi (Ref.

His prolific career, which began in the late 1970s, is distinguished by a democratic approach to design, aiming to improve the lives of as many people as possible through objects that are both functional and poetically subversive.Starck's vast body of work spans architecture (such as the Royalton Hotel in New York and the Bordeaux Sports Palace), interior design, to the creation of everyday objects, yachts, and iconic furniture. He is renowned for crafting distinctive pieces for the most prestigious brands, including the celebrated "Louis Ghost" chair for Kartell and the iconic "Juicy Salif" citrus squeezer for Alessi.Known for his intelligent minimalism, innovative use of materials like plastic, and his ability to infuse humour and profound philosophical reflection into every object, Starck's creations, such as the Miss K lamp, are featured in the permanent collections of major design museums worldwide.
