	title of this thread your message Yeah, the first one is by George Nelson. Designed in 1955 or so, produced by Koch & Lowy. I think it's a beautiful lamp, but the aluminum body and three-way rotary switch get HOT after the lamp has been left on for a while; I'd pay almost anything for a three-way LED bulb to replace the 50-100-150W incandescent that's in there now. As for the Tolomeo... Maybe "most functional" isn't true anymore -- the lamp was designed over 20 years ago, and I HOPE new lamps have built upon its successful features -- but it certainly was true when I first saw it in the late 80s. More in a future message; have to go to a meeting now. associated web images (optional) associated web link (optional) your email your password create a forums account \| you forgot your password?
