Enhance your interior with this Vademecum lamp, an iconic piece of Italian design by Joe Colombo for Kartell. Designed and manufactured in 1968, this lamp perfectly embodies the designer's futuristic and functional aesthetic.
Its innovative, minimalist design in molded plastic makes it as decorative as it is practical. Ideal for lovers of vintage design, it will bring a retro and original touch to your interior.
Works perfectly. LED bulbs are recommended to avoid potential melting of the plastic base.

Authentic & rare: A true collector's item sought after by 20th-century design enthusiasts.
The Vademecum lamp features a plastic base and a stainless steel arm/shade. This part is adjustable and can even be folded completely. The lamp has a double on/off switch. Light intensity can therefore be influenced by adjusting the shade or by switching on one or two bulbs.
