Serpente 60
October, 2025

Our showroom in San Babila, Milan, hosted the Serpente 60 launch. On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, Serpente is bursting with new energy thanks to a special orange finish, a colour that symbolises vitality, optimism and creativity. Serpente, created by Elio Martinelli in 1965, is a classic symbol of Italian design's fusion of innovation and poetry, form and function.

"Orange is a color that inspires energy, motion, and artistic freedom—qualities that still inspire our work now and were a hallmark of my father, Elio Martinelli.  When my son Marco first started playing the piano as a child, I recall this lamp in our house standing out on the instrument. Serpente completely defines us and is a part of our history as a family and as a business.”  Emiliana Martinelli, Martinelli Luce's president

We would like to thank everyone who took part and enjoyed this anniversary with us, which is a part of our family's history.
