In its center it presents an original closed ceramic container whose exact purpose remains to be determined. It is green in color, in good condition and has 5 holes, certainly used for storing pens.

The lamp works perfectly and has a patina and signs of wear due to age.
Rare lamp, especially complete and in this condition. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
