This rare Veneta Lumi desk lamp is a stunning piece of mid-century modern design, made in Italy in the 1980s. The lamp features a large, glossy red base with a red shade that can be adjusted to provide different levels of lighting. Its unique, eclectic and minimalist design makes it a perfect addition to any room. The lamp is UL certified and has a switch control style. It can be used as a decorative piece or as a functional desk lamp with incandescent/LED capability. Its cord color is black, and it has a base diameter of 7.8 inches. This amazing, eye catching lamp is in excellent condition, but does show appropriate signs of normal use, a little wear, was much loved over the years it has been enjoyed. There is a small mark approximately two inches from where the cord enters into the arm. Please feel free to ask questions, thank you for looking and hopefully you will be the next one to love and enjoy this wonderful lamp for many years to come.
