Kilo comprises a milled cylinder of blackened solid steel and a silken shade, linked by a slender tube finished in polished nickel or brass.

The pairing of small base and large shade seems to defy rules of balance, yet, standing 55.5 centimeters high, the table lamp is a counterpoint to the delightful precariousness of the floor-lamp design. Its appearance of greater stability makes this luminaire suitable for console tables and other delicate surfaces, particularly in areas that would benefit from ambient illumination.
