Designed by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina for Artemide, they have remained a symbol of combining engineering precision with elegance since the 1980s.

Movable arms - made of anodized aluminum, mounted on a spring tension system, reminiscent of a pantograph design. Allows smooth adjustment of the lamp with one hand.

Stable base - provides balance even when the arm is fully extended.

Adjustable lampshade - in the parchment paper version, it can be rotated and tilted in any direction, allowing you to focus the light exactly where you need it.

Mechanical elegance - the combination of technical precision and a sense of form makes Tolomeo suitable for both offices and modern private interiors.

Light: focused and precise, ideal for working, reading, drawing.

Winner of the Compasso d'Oro award in 1989 - one of the most important design awards.

Permanent place in the collections of museums, including:

MoMA (New York)

Vitra Design Museum (Weil am Rhein).

Symbol of the postmodern approach to functionalism - combines industrial aesthetics with domestic warmth

Tolomeo is more than a lamp - it's a moving sculpture of light that has remained relevant for more than 35 years thanks to its construction and design. Ideal for those who appreciate precision, flexibility and classics in contemporary design.
