About the Item

Halo Mobile floor lamp in Chromed steel, Desigen by Rico and Rosemary Baltensweiler is an exceptional piece of modern lighting design. The Baltensweiler made a striking and unusual floor lamp with great flexibility, adding a playfull adjustment mechanism. A wire cable through the arched bow of the lamp with a heavy counterweight at its end, in form of a metal balk, creates the height adjustment system. This is easily operated with one hand on the plexiglass adjustment wheel. The fixture of the counterweight also gives the lamp a stability that over goes what you would find in other large bow arch lamps. The luminaire can be adjusted around both axis, which gives every thinkable option for directing the light in the room. The fine details of the reflector, with the precise cut slices on its backside is another feature that highlights the originality and the quality of design, and both allows cooling to the illumination and in the same time creates a discreet but interesting play of light. All components, Reflector, stand and luminaire head are of high quality workmanship, and impeccable material quality. Luminaire can be adjusted in height and rotated around its own axis by means of a weight/pull cord system, reflector can be rotated. Dimming device is attached to the cable. This example originates from the early production of the lamp in the 1970ies. The lamp is in excellent condition, and is bearing hardly any traces of use. The lamp is fully functional. The lamp is adjusted to full height 225 cm tall. And a wide span of 155 cm.
