It’s over 20 years since Michele De Lucchi designed the Tolomeo Micro desk light for Artemide. But even today, you’ll struggle to find a desk lamp as small and stylish as this anywhere.
An 80s item, but inspired by pre-war European design, this is a classic adjustable tabletop lamp, which should fit easily onto your desk or bedside. And once there, it has a cantilevered arm and adjustable head to position the light exactly where you want it.
The kind of item that’s unlikely to ever drop out of fashion – and available for £110.
a truly design icon of our time.
