Artemide - Pipe floor lamp 

Base in "soft touch" effect painted steel; stem covered with a natural platinum silicone sheath (anti yellowing); transparent polycarbonate diffuser painted with rubber effect; transparent lens; internal reflector in specular aluminium with irregular micro-holes. The new internal diffuser reinterprets the previous fluorescent lamp using a modern LED source, this ensures the same optical performance with lower energy consumption and better light quality.
