Stilnovo Topo Base Historical LED Table Lamp

Topo Base is the iconic designer table lamp created by Joe Colombo in 1970 and produced by Stilnovo. A true cult object with unmistakable automotive inspiration, the distinctive slits on the shell recall the air intakes of 1960s sports cars — a detail that is both functional and aesthetic, designed to dissipate heat while preventing direct glare. The overall shape of the shade, which encloses the E27 bulb inside, evokes the silhouette of a mouse — hence the ironic and unforgettable name. The structure is entirely in metal, with an adjustable shell in glossy painted finishes: white, black, green, chrome and iconic red, with a white interior. The handle at the top of the reflector is made of black heat-insulating material, allowing the light to be directed without burning one's fingers. The articulated metal arms, with black plastic joints, allow the lamp to be extended or retracted freely, while the support base is in black or red metal with a black polyethylene finish.

A lamp of iconic character and timeless personality, Topo Base integrates with elegance into both domestic and professional environments that value classic Italian design. It is a refined choice for the living room, where it becomes a centrepiece on a desk or side table, as well as for the bedroom or a designer office. The 7 W LED light source with E27 fitting is included in the Classic A Retrofit LED version, delivering a colour temperature of 3000 K for warm, enveloping light, a CRI greater than 80 and a diffused light emission. The lamp is not dimmable and is rated IP20 for indoor use. The power cord measures 2500 mm and the lamp is compatible with voltages between 100 and 240 V, with insulation class II. A switch is integrated. At maximum extension, the lamp reaches a height of 730 mm, a width of 800 mm and a depth of 600 mm, with a base diameter of 290 mm. The version with a clamp is also available within the product family.
