Under the guidance of Renzo Pighi and his brother Diego, Valenti srl became the leading Italian lighting star by the 1960's. Their efforts led to the creation of design successes such as the Medusa, Pistillo and Hebi lamps. In a moment of extraordinary ferment for Italian design, Valenti became a reference for the new generation of designers: from Olaf von Bohr, the Tetrarch Studio to Isao Hosoe, and it took an active role in the debate regarding the emerging ADI.  The Valentina Terra Floor and the Miriade wire system were born during this period. These were important results for the company, which attracted internationally renowned designers such as De Pas, D’Urbino, Lomazzi, Raimondi and Bonetto and won several commendations in the Compasso d’Oro. New materials and increasingly streamlined processes distinguish the current industrial phase, where the company works with the designers Borsato, Cortesi and Vietri.  The Sphere Table Lamp represents an elegant contemporary grouping of crystal blown spheres with long life globe bulbs on a painted metal frame.
