Alma light PICA Cotton and iron table lamp

PICA is a floor lamp designed by Josep Novell and Josep Puig, which has a heavy steel structure inspired by the wrought-iron technique and a wide cotton lampshade adjustable in height.‎ PICA owes its name to the Spanish ancient defensive spear used to contain cavalry charges.‎ PICA brings us, then, reminiscences of a distant past so many times represented in Art.‎ Starting from this historical concept, PICA modernizes the idea of the 'iron forge' and combines the image of this ancient technique with the own style of its two designers.‎ What we love about PICA is its functional and sober style, its remarkably timeless design, the soft light that it produces filtered by the shade.‎ Precisely, the shade can go up and down along the mast by means of a simple retention system, thus adapting to the needs of every moment.‎ We really like its shape and appearance, as it adapts perfectly to current lighting requirements.‎ It is ideal for the living room, as a reading base next to an armchair or sofa, in a home, hotel facility, reception of a medical or cultural center, or in classic, minimalist and contemporary interior designs where an elegant luminaire with a great presence is required.‎ PICA has a total height of 152cm.‎ The cotton shade, available in white, dark gray or customizable according to the interior design requirements, is covered by a plastic membrane and measures 45cm in diameter and 22cm in height.‎ The structure, with a cross-shaped base, is made of iron with a protective layer of manganese phosphate typical of industrial tools, and varnished.‎ It includes an E27 lamp holder that allows the user to choose the bulb according to the desired light temperature.‎ The electrical cable is black textile, and the on/off switch is located in the lamp holder itself, which makes it easy to turn it on and off from the seat.‎ PICA is not dimmable.‎ All mechanical parts, as well as the shade, are produced locally.‎ Materials: Structure iron with protective layer of manganese phosphate, shade cotton with plastic membrane cover ajustable in height Lamp not included, replaceable E27 LED On/off switch, without dimmer Maintenance : Clean with a soft piece of cloth.‎ Do not use solvent, amoniac based or abrasive products.‎ Further info from manufacturer on PICA Alma light
