Oluce Sonora 493 Historical Suspension Lamp

Oluce Sonora 493 is the largest suspension lamp in the celebrated Sonora family, designed by Vico Magistretti in 1976 for Oluce. The story of Sonora is the story of a pure geometric form: geometry was Magistretti's constant creative companion, an inspiring principle of rigorous and timeless simplification. Crafted in blown PMMA, the Sonora 493 stands out for its commanding proportions — a 133 cm diameter and 61 cm height — making it one of the most iconic and beloved pieces of twentieth-century Italian design.

With its diffused and direct light emission, the Sonora 493 is designed to illuminate large, open spaces with refined elegance, becoming a powerful architectural statement in any interior. It is the ideal choice for a living room or any grand, representative space. The lamp is equipped with 2 E26/E27 lampholders, compatible with LED sources up to a maximum of 150W, and comes complete with an integrated transparent cable and an included white canopy. Compatibility with voltages from 100 to 240V — suitable for EU, AUD, USA, UK and JAP standards — ensures its versatility on an international scale. The IP20 protection rating and insulation class I complete the technical profile of this extraordinary historical design piece, whose essence has remained unchanged for over forty years.
