RICKSHAW LAMP COLLECTION

CARRITO

Carrito is an original 1960s rickshaw tricycle  from the archives of the Giordani company, where it was produced in Reggio Emilia. It is conceived as a traveling library and reading lamp. An adjustable spherical headlight is mounted on a hand-bent arch, while a five-meter silk-covered cable allows it to move freely. The bench supports smaller objects, while the wooden shelf accommodates larger ones. All original tricycle elements remain intact: the red varnish, wheels, structure, and seat are preserved in their original state.
