‘Chromo’ table lamp blue, large US

Although their sleek appearance owes much to the curves and shine of art deco style, the function of these table lamps is actually inspired by a much earlier movement, chromotherapy. This belief in the healing powers of colour and light dates back to the ancient Egyptians and Greeks, who used sunlight, coloured stones and dyes as remedies. Similarly, these modular ‘Chromo’ table lamps can be mixed and matched, creating various coloured lights to help us get through dark winters. Comprised of a central metal shape, a large coloured glass piece and a set of curved glass pipes, the modular lamps have two light sources: a neon tube hidden at their centre and a set of LED lights at the base of the glass pipes. Depending on which way around the reversible lamps are placed, they project different effects.
