Il Pezzo Mancante Il Pezzo 3 table battery lamp

Il Pezzo 3 Bugia by Il Pezzo Mancante, designed by Barbara Bertocci and Cosimo Terzani, is a rechargeable table lamp that reinterprets the traditional candle holder, known in Italy as the "bugia", through a contemporary design language. Handmade in Florence, it combines hand-bent satin brass, solid crystal and Volterra alabaster, creating a refined lighting object where Italian craftsmanship meets modern technology to produce a warm and intimate atmosphere.

Il Pezzo 3 Bugia: contemporary craftsmanship inspired by tradition

The project transforms an object deeply rooted in everyday history into an elegant portable lamp for modern interiors. The solid crystal diffuser produces a soft, candle-like glow, while the satin brass structure is entirely hand-finished by skilled artisans. The Volterra alabaster base discreetly houses the rechargeable battery, integrated LED module and USB-C charging port, preserving the purity of the design.

Thanks to its cordless design, Il Pezzo 3 Bugia is perfectly suited to dining tables, restaurants, boutique hotels, luxury hospitality spaces and the living room, where it becomes both a functional light source and an elegant decorative element. The integrated 2700K LEDs with CRI above 95 deliver exceptionally natural colour rendering, while the touch dimmer allows the brightness to be adjusted effortlessly to create the desired ambience.

The collection is available in two versions, each designed for a different setting. The one-light version faithfully recalls the traditional candle holder and is ideal for illuminating an intimate table for two while maintaining clear eye contact between guests. The two-light version reinterprets the classic candelabra and is designed as a refined centrepiece capable of comfortably lighting a table for up to four people.

Every Il Pezzo 3 Bugia is handcrafted to order in the Il Pezzo Mancante atelier in Florence. The combination of artisanal brass craftsmanship, natural alabaster, solid crystal and advanced LED technology makes each lamp a timeless design object that celebrates the excellence of contemporary Italian craftsmanship.
