Artemide Tolomeo Floor Lamp

Artemide Tolomeo Floor Lamp is the Mega version of the Tolomeo range designed by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina. This large-scale floor lamp celebrates the original architectural task lamp in a version that provides adjustable overhead lighting from a single stationary base.

The Tolomeo Mega is defined by a tall vertical pole, a heavy flat circular base and a two-part articulated arm system. The Mega head replaces the smaller aluminium shade with a large, balanced white diffuser; the Mega diffuser is offered in multiple sizes to suit different room scales.

Construction is true to the Tolomeo lineage: an aluminium arm structure with polished metal pivots, exposed tension cables and spring mechanisms give a precise, industrial aesthetic while remaining lightweight and robust. A small handle at the head allows manual tilting and repositioning.

The white translucent diffuser casts a soft, even glow that works well as ambient or task lighting over sofas and tables while helping control direct glare. The cantilevered arm system lets you position light across a room without moving the base, offering both reach and flexibility.

Note the lamp is rated IP20 for indoor use. A thin mains cord exits the base and needs a nearby socket; check the product page for specific lamp, LED or driver inclusions for the exact model. The Tolomeo range is covered by a five-year manufacturer warranty.
