Originally created in 1982, Ettore Sottsass’ “horn” of light creates the remarkable illusion of an oversized musical instrument. I have verified with Artemide that this is one of the early models, featuring the exterior fuse cap towards base (later relocated near dimmer). A floor-standing lamp, the body is aluminum painted yellow with a polished chrome handle, steel diffuser polished red and a steel base painted gray. Incorporated dimmer. A silhouette that is well-known by discerning design enthusiasts. less
