Designed by renowned German designer Hans von Klier for the historic Milanese brand Bilumen, this lamp embodies the perfect balance between industrial engineering and sculptural minimalism.

The structure features a solid conical granite base that ensures impeccable stability. Rising from the base is a vertical matte black metal upright that supports an exceptionally long swivel arm. The arm is fully adjustable, allowing the light source to be positioned with extreme precision. The disc-shaped diffuser, also adjustable, provides a warm, atmospheric light, making this piece ideal as a reading light or as a focal architectural element in a spacious living room or professional office.
