The Base Cast Iron lamp is one of the most essential and pure objects by Luigi Caccia Dominioni. This table lamp is reduced to a minimum, even in the name, which simply indicates one of the structural elements. It is a discreet domestic object, a small but fundamental presence. And in Milan - hometown of Caccia Dominioni - "cast iron" is also the nickname that was affectionately given to the traffic police, precisely because of their austere dark headgear. We are faced with a project of pure geometry, almost abstract, entirely dedicated to function, a game of angles and inclinations seems to start from the heavy base that almost make the whole structure fluctuate, in a skilful game of very subtle balances made possible by the solidity of the materials. Base Ghisa shares its older sister Monachella with the shape of the lampshade, elegant and gracefully inclined, which hides the bulb and wisely prevents being blinded by direct light, but which guarantees a wide and enveloping cone of light despite the small size of the lamp. The dark color causes the lamp to disappear in the dark room, leaving the light as the true and only protagonist of the environment.
