castore floor lamp

Castore is a series of table, floor or pendant lights which offer diffused incandescent or halogen lighting. The spherical diffuser design is enhanced by a removable-fitting and tapering luminous stem, making a gentle transition from the strong diffuser light to the blind lamp structure area. Castore terra 35 and 42 have a touch band on the stem for the storage of the latest light intensity set-up The spherical diffuser features white hand-blown glass, with external etched finish, the stem in steel tubing, covered by a tapered sleeve in white translucent molded polycarbonate, allowing for partial soft diffusion of light from the diffuser. The base is in die-cast metal alloy with white powder coated finish. Available in two sizes.
