Hebi Lamp

The Hebi lamp, designed in the early 1970s by Japanese designer Isao Hosoe for Valenti Luce, is a true icon of modern lighting design.

Its name, meaning “snake” in Japanese, reflects the lamp’s distinctive flexible arm, which can be bent and twisted into endless positions to direct light exactly where it’s needed. With its tubular design, pivoting shade, and playful adaptability, the Hebi lamp embodies the innovative and experimental spirit of 1970s Italian design. Highly collectible today, it remains a striking statement piece that combines sculptural form with everyday function, perfect for desks, bedsides, or living spaces.
