SWISS HALO 250 FLOOR LAMP DESIGN BY BALTENSWEILER, 1970s.
 
An elegant floor lamp, a true rarity, designed by Rico and Rosemarie Baltensweiler in the 1960s. The Halo model consists of a round base in veined Carrara marble, from which grows a chromed metal rod that houses a winged reflector that is adjustable in height and rotates on its own. Mood lighting or a focused desk lamp through to indirect basic lighting in living and working areas. The restrained design and the high quality of the materials used make the Halo 250 a classic.
