Tolomeo Table Lamp

Designer Michele De Lucchi & Giancarlo Fassina
Distributor Stylecraft

The Tolomeo series, designed by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassino in 1986 for Artemide, is recognised by designers and architects around the world as a perfect marriage of engineering and design. Perhaps one of the most iconic lighting collections in the world, the Tolomeo remains as relevant to various settings today as it was over 30 years ago.

A study in balance and movement, the Tolomeo table lamp is designed for a fully adjustable direction of light working perfectly as both a functional task lamp and design object. The Table Lamp offers various options including an incorporated dimmer switch on the head, a motion sensor which uses passive infrared technology for energy conservation, and/or Tunable White LED technology allowing for varied intensities and colour temperatures. It is also available in vibrant pops of colour in the Bicolour version with blue, coral and white options added to accent the black base. Available in an option of Mega or Classic sizing, there are also options of parchment or fabric shades.

The Tolomeo Table Lamp is also available in various wall, suspension and floor options.
