New Pamono Totem Floor Lamps by Kazuhide Takahama for Sirrah, Set of 2

A striking pair of „Totem“ floor lamps designed by Kazuhide Takahama in 1982 for Sirrah, in collaboration with legendary Italian design visionary Dino Gavina.
These sculptural pieces reflect Takahama’s refined architectural sensibility and are a rare example of 1980s Italian lighting design influenced by American modernism.
Each lamp is crafted from galvanized stainless steel with a golden finish. The base, made of sandstone, anchors the vertical composition and adds a contrasting tactile quality.
Drawing inspiration from the soaring American skyscrapers of the 1930s, the Totem lamps stand as functional light sculptures with a strong geometric silhouette. The lamps feature halogen lighting that provides beautifully diffused, indirect illumination—ideal for creating atmosphere in refined interiors.

Kazuhide Takahama was a Japanese architect and designer celebrated for his minimalist style and the seamless blend of Eastern and Western design influences.
After starting his career in Japan, he moved to Italy in 1957, where he worked closely with Dino Gavina and the pioneering firm Gavina SpA.
Takahama gained recognition for his refined furniture designs, such as the Tulu chairs (1968) and Gaja series (1969), known for their clean lines, geometric clarity, and emphasis on simplicity. His work remains a hallmark of mid-century modern design. ”
