Artemide Tolomeo Basculante Lamp with Parchment Diffuser

Artemide Tolomeo Basculante with parchment diffuser is one of the most iconic creations from the celebrated Tolomeo collection by Artemide, an adjustable reading lamp in polished aluminium featuring a parchment paper diffuser of timeless elegance. The structure is crafted entirely in polished aluminium, balanced by a sophisticated spring system that allows the two-part articulated arm to hold any desired position with effortless precision. The single aluminium joint and counterbalance mechanism make this product a masterful example of the harmony between form and function, where the engineering itself becomes an aesthetic signature.

Thanks to its fully adjustable orientation, the Tolomeo Basculante Reading is perfectly suited to focused reading light and everyday visual comfort, fitting naturally into a living room or a bedroom. The parchment paper diffuser, with a diameter of 180 mm, delivers a diffused and direct light emission that is soft and enveloping, creating warm and welcoming atmospheres without ever compromising functionality. The ON/OFF switch integrated directly onto the diffuser ensures immediate ease of use. The lamp accepts an 8 W LED light source with E26/E27 socket, not included, with universal voltage compatibility from 100 to 240 V, suitable for installations across Europe, USA, Australia, UK, and Japan. The degree of protection is IP20. The package includes the aluminium base (ref. A014900) with a diameter of 230 mm and the lamp body with parchment diffuser measuring 180 mm in diameter (ref. A014600), forming a complete and coordinated system.
