Hi Guys, just bought this floor lamp without shade - another project, just what I need, couldn't help myself!! All searches, variations of searches come up empty, I need to know what the original shade looked like - I hate Marriages that look OK but are not as the designer intended!

nitsuj,
Write to the guys at the Fontana Arte US distribution center. They are collectors and very helpful.

Thanks Niceguy!
Emailed them & they responded in a flash with an answer & photo!
'Hello,
This is the Franceschina Floor lamp designed by Umberto Riva in 1989.
The lamp is discontinued but I can check with Italy to see if they have
replacement glass.
Thank you,
Teresa
'
Awesome!! Thanks all around!

You are welcome
nitsuj,
I was sure that my friends at Fontana Arte USA (Teresa is the adminastrative assistant) would be able to help you and I am pleased that you got the answer you desired in short order. I hope that Fontana Arte Italy is able to find your replacement glass.
I am also pleased that your attitude towards me is strikingly different than some others who use this forum.
It is and was my great pleasure to help you.

Impressed by Fontana Arte's fast, helpful response.
But, MAN-- that's one improvised looking design! What a remarkably inelegant way to attach a glass shade.

replacement glass shades
nitsuj,
It has been a while since your original posting and I was interested to find out if Fontana Arte was able to locate the replacement shades for you.
