Undisputed emblem of elegance and functionality, the Daphine
represents the essence of Lumina. The idea behind the creation
of the Daphine lamp is as simple as it is effective: a pivoting diffuser,
an articulated arm in two segments and an electromechanical
transformer on a cylindrical base between two metal caps.
The Daphine first “saw the light” in a small workshop in Sedriano
(Milan province) in 1975 thanks to the skilful hands of Tommaso
Cimini, a mechanical engineering expert, and the machines he
had retooled for the purpose.
The Daphine springs from Tommaso Cimini’s design philosophy,
“Lots of light, not much lamp”, which is still the essence of every
product bearing the name of Lumina, the company he set up in
1980. 45 years on, the Daphine’s aesthetic and functionality are
unchanged, which goes to show the validity of the original idea.
