SB Cinquantotto is a design masterpiece that comes from afar and brings the emotion of a
family history into the contemporary world. Designed in 1958 for Arteluce by the architects
Carlo Santi and Vittorio Borachia, the prototype of this perfect example of the finest Italian
manufacturing has for years embellished the Lake Como home of Gino Sarfatti, founder of
Arteluce and grandfather of Alessandro, Astep’s founder.
Recovered by Alessandro, who knew of its design qualities and its manufacturing of excellence
since he was a child, it is re-proposed following the original design, like a suspension in satin
opal glass hand blown in Italy. The timeless aesthetic of the thin diffuser, perfect for elegantly
illuminating any environment, meets the mounting system based on the pattern generated
by a black cable that runs freely next to an almost transparent aluminum wire.
