Fluid and versatile shapes
This lamp is held into a sphere, two horizontal tops separate the reflector from the base. The reflector’s rotatory movement around the central articulation constantly describes new spheres.
A sinuous, dynamic and agile shape, like a cobra that swings hypnotized by the music but ready to the spring.
It is moulded with one single material, that is to say thermosetting resin, and available in bright colours, white, black or red.
Reading lamp with direct light, made with two resin molded bodies. The lower body part turns on a steel made base connected with the upper body part by means of a central joint for a 360° rotation. The interior reflector is made with white painted aluminium.
Designed by Elio Martinelli in 1968, Cobra is one of the first lighting fixtures produced with a special resin molding system. The lamp is characterized by simple lines and a geometric shape inscribed in a sphere, but, with the rotation of the arm, the reflector takes a position that recalls the head of a cobra ready to shoot.

Elio Martinelli
Elio Martinelli was born on 19 November 1922, the only son of Plinio and his wife Emilia, one of Lucca's best-known milliners, who probably passed on the artistic vein to him. After spending his childhood and adolescence in Lucca with the friends who would eventually become his lifelong friends, he pursued set design studies in Florence, where he eventually graduated. Elio discovered that his interests were different, being more creative than strictly technical, after taking over the family firm following the tragic death of his father Plinio.
