About the designer

The lighting creations of Italian designer and entrepreneur Angelo Gaetano Sciolari (commonly known as Gaetano Sciolari) have surged in popularity once again. Drawing inspiration from movements like Cubism, Deconstructivism, and Minimalism, his work delivered sophisticated, sculptural, and often futuristic flair. During the 1970s, Sciolari Lighting expanded significantly into the American market through partnerships with importers like Lightolier and Progress Lighting, which showcased his collections in annual catalogs. Many consider the 1970s Sciolari's peak era, in tune with the broader cultural shift toward more decorative, crafted aesthetics with Art Deco revival and Space Age.

Sciolari was also a key industry figure, serving as the founder and first president of the Italian trade association for lighting manufacturers (AIDI – Associazione Italiana di Imprese di Illuminazione). Today, his chandeliers, pendants, and lamps command premium prices and remain highly coveted by collectors worldwide. A true entrepreneur visionary of innovative design, Sciolari's pieces continue to illuminate interiors with timeless Italian sophistication.
