Mirror / Lamp “Ultrafragola” - Ettore Sottsass

Ultrafragola was designed in 1970 by Ettore Sottsass as part of his series of Mobili Grigi in thermoformed ABS resin whose glossy monochrome paintings combined with colored neon lighting testify to the influence of American popular culture. It is directly inspired by the large wooden mirrors gilded with gold leaf and thus reinterprets tradition in a modern material.

Published continuously by Poltronova since 1970, Ultrafragola is one of the most sought-after and best-known models by Ettore Sottsass. Collectors of 20th century design love it, because with its sculptural dimensions (1.80m high and 1m wide), it is more expensive vintage than new. Its line, recognizable among all, both simple and extravagant, allows it to fit into both a classic and contemporary interior. Off white, it lights up pink or yellow (for vintage models) once lit thanks to the neon that runs through the interior of the resin frame.
A must-have for any lover of postmodernist design.

The shape, size and complexity of the lighting system, brightness and color may be perceived slightly different, depending on the light, type of image, or the background and surrounding environment.

Any different colors or shades of colors are not consistent with the original projects, they are not authentic.


nb The Ultrafragola mirror was designed by Ettore Sottsass jr. in a single colour: light pink.
