Description
Enter the world of rare and exquisite design with a true masterpiece from the 1950s – the Gino Sarfatti model 598 table lamp for ArteLuce. This is not just a lamp; it's a work of art, a piece of history, and a collector's dream. With only a few specimens existing in the world, it's truly a museum-worthy gem.
As your eyes are drawn to this exceptional lamp, you'll immediately be struck by its iconic and unparalleled design. Its spherical form is a testament to the innovative genius of Gino Sarfatti. The nickel-plated brass cap, painted in a mesmerizing shade of green, crowns the lamp like a precious jewel, adding an element of sophistication and charm. But the real magic lies within. Encased in a transparent glass sphere, you'll find a perfectly functional bulb holder, a testament to the lamp's timeless design. The patina on every component tells a story of decades gone by, adding character and depth to this remarkable piece.
The lamp's base is a true testament to eccentricity and creativity. Crafted in the form of a cast iron semi-circle, it features intricate strip-like patterns, also adorned with a patina that bears the marks of time – slight abrasions that only enhance its vintage allure.
This lamp isn't just a source of light; it's a symbol of Italian design history, an icon that has left an indelible mark on the world of design. It's not just an acquisition; it's an investment in the future, a piece that will only appreciate with time. Owning this lamp means embracing a piece of Italian design from the 1950s, a piece of history that has shaped the world of aesthetics. It's a statement of your appreciation for the artistry of Gino Sarfatti and a testament to your discerning taste in design.
Whether you're a design aficionado or a dedicated collector, this lamp is a treasure that transcends time and trends. It's a piece that will not only illuminate your space but also illuminate your soul with its timeless beauty and historical significance.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
