GRIP

Grip is a special lamp, ideal for reading. A tubular shaft in varnished steel, embedded in a base,  rises at a slight angle and ends in a projecting universal joint. This bicolored “gyroscope” connects, over its own axis, two highly distinctive components and allows the light to be directed according to individual needs for reading. At the lower part, a “microphone” contains the light bulb, screened and focused to provide adequate light without disturbing other people that may be eventually present on the same room. Diametrically opposed is a “handle” – made of a plastic-covered tube -, ending in a knob-shaped switch, which forms a grip that can be easily moved with one hand as to naturally direct the beam of light in the most appropriate way.
