There are a few slightly different versions of
the Sorella lamp. I came across 3 different versions among the 11
vintage Sorella lamps I got through the years. The version used in Space:
1999 is the type shown in picture no 6, 11, 12 and 14(the one on the
right). It has a slightly more angled inclinaison and the inside
of the base is not enclosed by a lid around the light bulb allowing the
light of the bulb to show through the openings at the bottom of the base
(pic no 11). Too bad the re-edition by Nemo Cassina is not that
type that is, to me, the most attractive. Unfortunately, they seem
to be producing the less attractive type with the ugly black ring around
the bulb. (pic no 7) There is also the other version the 2nd most
attractive one that seems to have been only available in America. (pic
no 8) |
