another colombo design that was ahead of its time. The lamp head consists of a folded metal element and is perforated with cutouts. The shaft penetrates the reflector through one of these slots. The head is painted brown and can be rotated and tilted within a certain range. It is secured with a plastic screw. The push button switch is located on the back of the head. The finely crafted chrome shaft forms a wide base. The rear section of the shaft is guided in a wall bracket and runs parallel to the wall. The wall bracket is trumpet-shaped and matches the color of the lamp head. The shaft is height-adjustable. The position is secured with a black screw. The cable exits visibly from the bottom of the shaft. A key design element of the design is the light source (not included). The upper opening in the shade is designed to accommodate a cornalux bulb. This special bulb is now also available as an led.
