Floor lamp with direct and indirect light. Di user and rod made of breglass–based composite material and liquid coated.Translucent polycarbonate upper di user disc, PMMA lower di user disc with polyprismatic internal surface. Epoxy powdercoated metal round base. Supplied with 4 counter–weights to be inserted in the purpose–provided seat above the di user toadjust its height. For LED version the circuit boards were purpose–designed by Foscarini, to achieve a superior level of colorrendering (CRI) and retaining the same colour temperature as a halogen light source (Kelvin). The two LED circuit boards areinstalled on an aluminium disc that acts as a dissipator, and the upper board is protected by a small PMMA disc. Additional arc–extending rods available upon request; the black cable is tted with a dimmer which can be used both to adjust the level ofluminous intensity gradually or as the ON/OFF switch.
