Inspired by a floor lamp that was all the rage in the 90's. ( in the finest interiors of course !) 
The original was a bit flimsy.
We made a better and improved version upon request of a client.
Heavy brass pipe. Cast brass base. 
The black section at the base is wood. ( can be made in any finish) 

The shade was the eye-catcher of the lamp, with its support fully shown by going down. ( To block direct view into the bulb one can place a fabric tube over the bulb...see added picture) 
The lamp can of course also be fitted with a different style lamp shade. 
Shade shown : 35/11/15cm
Base 23cm square. / 9 inch
Lamp can be made in any size and finish.

Lamp + shade : 151cm / 59.5 inch
