Sciolari Lighting: Icons of Italian Design

Sciolari Lighting: Icons of Italian Design

Vintage Sciolari lighting captures the glamour of Italian design in the 1960s and 70s like few others. Under the direction of Gaetano Sciolari, the historic Roman company transformed lighting into sculptural centrepieces, combining architectural precision with luxurious materials. Today, Sciolari chandeliers, pendants and wall lights remain icons of vintage Italian lighting.

Instantly recognisable, Sciolari designs pair polished brass and chrome with crystal, smoked glass and strong geometric compositions. Their bold silhouettes bring depth, symmetry and elegance to an interior, creating statement pieces that feel just as contemporary today as they did half a century ago.

Unlike purely decorative lighting, Sciolari fixtures balance visual impact with exceptional craftsmanship. Whether suspended above a dining table or anchoring a living space, they embody the refined optimism of post-war Italian design and continue to be highly sought after by collectors, architects and interior designers alike.

At Malamar Studio, we carefully source, restore and rewire authentic vintage Sciolari lighting, preserving the quality and character that have made these designs enduring classics.
