The 'Spider 291' table lamp was designed by Joe Colombo in 1965 and manufactured by Oluce, Italy. It has a baked-enamelled sheet metal reflector purposely designed to take a special horizontal spot light bulb. A plastic joint allows the reflector to tilt. The lamp has a lacquered metal base, a chromium-plated stem, and an adjustable reflector in lacquered aluminium. It takes B22 bulbs.
In 1967 Spider won the Compasso d’Oro award. It is part of the permanent collections of the Milan Triennale, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Kunstmuseum of Düsseldorf and the 'Neue Sammlung Museum' in Munich.
