Design by Michele De Lucchi, Giancarlo Fassina. In 1989, when the Tolomeo table/task was given the Compasso d'Oro award for Italian industrial design it was credited with having achieved the perfect marriage between design and engineering that works together in total "sync" to materialize an idea and create the perfect object for industrial production. Since then, the Tolomeo's award-winning design, engineering and performance features have been further refined in a complete series of models for table, floor, wall, track and suspension application.

After completing his studies architecture, his friendship with Ettore Sottsass and Alessandro Mendini took him to Milan at the end of the Seventies, where he became one of the main activists in the provocative designer group Memphis. His approach to the creation of new styles in design helped to play an important role in the Memphis movement, but by the late 1980's, de Lucchi had moved on to more traditional designs. After working with Artemide to develop some of their lasting bestsellers, de Lucchi created his Produzione Privata label, which creates small series of his designs featuring exquisite craftsmanship.

The architectural design of this lamp is very nice and will look great in any room you put it in. Cant wait to buy another from this line. By: Alfred G., Homeowner (Tucson, AZ, US) Great lamp love the modern look of it. I love the style and look from the Artemide Tolomeo line. This lamp is very well built and has clean lines. The lamps from this line are expensive but well worth it. By: Alfred G., Homeowner (Tucson, AZ US) Beautifully built This lamp works really well, it is easy and responsive to adjust, and looks beautiful. I really like it. By: Tom H., Homeowner (Seattle, WA) Beautifully built This lamp works really well, it is easy and responsive to adjust, and looks beautiful. I really like it. By: Tom H., Homeowner (Seattle) Timeless Design We bought the lamp as a lounge chair reading lamp and love it so far. It is the perfect size, looks and works great. One thing we found, though, is that you need to tighten the hinges when using heavier, LED style light bulbs. Not a big deal (no tools required, just twist some knobs) but it makes adjusting the light a little bit more work if you do it frequently. Just something to keep in mind. By: M.A., Homeowner (Boulder, CO) amazing design the lamp completes our family room. it is simple and elegant By: Constance C., Homeowner (blue bell pa usa) Buy Quality and you only cry once! Well, the Tolomero Classic Floor Lamp proved that old saying true. I cried with joy while reading "Souls of Black Folk" under its light. It was easy to assemble, after I read the directions. It is a classic lamp that will never go out of style. It is thing of beauty. It is Elegant/Timeless like Duke Ellington's music. Now, I am in search of the perfect reading chair. I am thinking Eames. By: , (Alabama) Nice modern lamp, harsh light This lamp has a sleek modern look and compliments our eclectic modern livingroom. The light produced is pretty harsh and if it is directly on something or in your eyes it is glaring. I am still searching for the right bulb which may resovle this problem. By: Seth T., (Boulder, CO) Timeless, elegant, functional This is the 5th Tolomeo Lamp I've purchased, in several different sizes. My goal is for every task lamp in my home to be a Tolomeo. They are all elegant, timeless, and great reading/task lamps. The quality and workmanship are superb. By the way, I still have the first Tolomeo I purchased over 14 years ago, and it looks/works like it's brand new. The price and service at YLighting are also superb. I will purchase this lamp again. By: Robert W., Homeowner Exquisite! The clean design of this floor lamp adds beauty to the studio environment while remaining totally functional. It is well balanced, easily operated and versatile. By: EYESPEAK, Designer (Fairfax, Virginia USA) Great, all purpose lamp! Ordered two of these for a client and she was thrilled with them. Great, flexible floor lamp for contemporary interiors. By: TC, Designer (New York, NY) 5 Stars - Superb in every way! I wrote an earlier review and neglected to 'select' the star rating, which may lead to a misleading overall rating. This lamp deserves a 5-star rating, so I'm submitting this additional review. By: Rob W., Homeowner (Reston, VA) Stylish, efficient and mobile...I love it! I have the desk version and I love how this design allows you to adjust it for specific tasks. I love that this version is on wheels, because it is used in a room that doubles as a guest room...everything has to move easily. I use the lamp to work on my art projects. I am able to adjust the lightweight arm very easily as to zero in on areas of detail. The only downside I can see is that the cord is very short. Obviously, if it is on wheels, you will be pushing it around. However, there isn't any extra cord to allow for this. Get out your extension cord. Otherwise, very happy. By: rita j., Designer (Kansas City) This lamp represents the ultimate in terms of functionality. It does exactly what I need it to do, which is to provide task lighting over a 3'x6' table, without taking up table space. It is almost infinitely adjustable. Aesthetically, it provides a sense of rather delicate mechanical modernism, which, surprisingly, harmonizes with almost any decor.
