Joe Colombo Model #2202 'Coupé' table lamp in black for Oluce. Originally designed in 1967, this is one of the most refined Minimalist Italian designs of the midcentury and an icon for Colombo. A highly adjustable table light, the shade can be rotated up/down and right/left. Executed in a lacquered metal base, chromium-plated stem and an adjustable reflector in lacquered aluminum, this iconic lamp is still made by Oluce in Italy using many of the original manufacturing techniques with scrupulous attention to detail, materials, and craftsmanship.

Available to order in unlimited quantities in choice of scarlet red or black. The Coupé is also available as a smaller Mini Coupé 'Model 2201' table lamp, a wall lamp 'Model 1158...
