Hard to imagine these days that people have enough disposable income to buy a lighting fixture just for looks like this, but I still think it looks neat anyway. If I had this I’d put it up right next to my desk and stare at it numbly all day long. (I do that sometimes, I get fixated at laundry spinning round and round and I can stare at it for a while. I digress)
Found out that Artemide made this. Last christmas I bought myself an Artimide Tolomeo desk lamp which I just love. Probably the most I ever spend on a lighting fixture though. I put some natural light bulbs in it and the thing is so bright I think they can see my office from around the neighborhood. Termites are flocking to my window from across the island.
