info Tusquets’ library lamp is an ingenious and witty solution to the problem of lighting a bookshelf. The base, housing the transformer and switch, is a matt-silver aluminum box that looks like a book, and actually sits on the shelves, sandwiched between real books. The light is a delicate dichroic halogen lamp, suspended in from top the shelves in the end of a swiveling, flexible, chromed rod. To allow you to feed the wiring up behind shelves, or along shelf brackets, there is a detachable socket in the base of the aluminum ‘book’. The lamp also comes with a hemispherical base, for use as a table or wall lamp.
