Artemide Tolomeo Micro Matt table lamp

The Artemide Tolomeo Matt 2025 is the contemporary evolution of one of the most iconic desk lamps in Italian design history. Designed in 1987 by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina for Artemide, the Tolomeo lamp has been awarded the Compasso d'Oro (1989) and the "Oscar des Architectes d'Intérieur" — international recognition that confirms its value not only as an aesthetic object, but as a technical and cultural landmark. The Matt 2025 edition introduces a palette of fully matte finishes — natural matte aluminium, matt black and matte copper — designed to complement modern, minimalist and professional environments while remaining faithful to the original design.

Crafted entirely from high-quality anodised aluminium, the Tolomeo Matt 2025 preserves the construction system that made it famous: slender adjustable arms, a directable conical diffuser and a steel spring balancing mechanism that ensures smooth movement and precise stability in any position. The pivoting head allows the light beam to be directed with millimetric precision in any direction, making it ideal for reading, desk work, creative workstations and professional use in offices and studios. The timeless design, enriched by the matte finish, allows the Tolomeo desk lamp to integrate naturally into bedrooms, living rooms and high-profile contract spaces.

The Artemide Tolomeo family is available in a complete range of versions for every need and environment: Tolomeo Micro (short arm, ideal for compact desks), Tolomeo Classic (the standard desk version), Tolomeo Mega (long arm for larger spaces), Tolomeo Parete (wall-mounted with articulated arm), Tolomeo Soffitto (ceiling version) and Tolomeo Terra (floor lamp). Every model is available with an E27 socket — compatible with LED retrofit bulbs — or as a native dimmable LED version. The Tolomeo Matt 2025 brings the same matte finishes across the entire family, ensuring visual consistency throughout any environment.

How to recognise an original Artemide Tolomeo. The original Tolomeo always features the Artemide logo engraved on both the head and the base. The anodised aluminium structure has a uniform, flawless finish; the spring system is silent and holds its position without oscillation. The box includes the official Artemide warranty certificate and multilingual instructions. Counterfeits can be identified by their reduced weight, uneven metallic finish, noisy springs and absence of the engraved mark. At Diffusione Shop we sell exclusively original Tolomeo lamps purchased directly from Artemide.
