Artemide Tolomeo Sliding Support Bracket

The Artemide Tolomeo Sliding Support Bracket is a lighting accessory designed to convert a single Tolomeo floor stand into a dual-lamp configuration. Finished in polished aluminium, it provides a clean, reflective accent that matches Tolomeo hardware and keeps visual continuity on the stand.

Form follows function: a cylindrical sleeve slides onto the vertical pole and is joined to a smaller cylindrical socket by a flat, tapering arm. A knurled thumb screw locks the bracket at the required height and a discreet black gasket sits at the sleeve base to sit neatly against the support rod.

Constructed from metal identified as aluminium, the bracket has a highly reflective silver finish consistent with professional-grade task lighting. The simple mechanical detailing reflects the Tolomeo system’s minimalist, industrial aesthetic and aligns with the product’s Italian design origins.

Functionally the bracket provides a secure socket for an additional Tolomeo lamp arm, allowing a second lamp head to be positioned independently on the same floor stand. As an accessory it extends the stand’s task and reading light capability without altering the original lamp configuration. The product is intended for indoor use and carries an IP20 rating.

Installation is straightforward: the sleeve slides over the support rod and is locked in place with the knurled thumb screw; the socket accepts the compatible lamp arm. The bracket is supplied as an accessory only and does not include lamp heads or the floor pole. Artemide offers a five-year product warranty.
