Italian Thinker Brothers Lamp Set

Five cordless lamps cast as figures deep in thought, each with its own posture and its own Italian name: Chi, Cosa, Quando, Dove and Perche. The reference is Rodin's Thinker, but the execution is entirely contemporary, and in a cool chrome finish the group reads as modern sculpture rather than as classical pastiche. Together they make one of the most distinctive lighting sets in the range.

The build is serious. Each figure weighs around 1200 grams, with an aluminium head over a solid polycarbonate body, and the head carries a 2700K LED activated by touch with three levels of dimming. Two hours of charging returns roughly twelve hours of light, and the 5V USB DC charging system works on any supply anywhere in the world without an adapter.

All five lamps and their charging accessories arrive together, which is how the set is meant to be used: grouped on a shelf at varying heights, arranged along a bar or counter, or distributed so that each figure holds a corner of a room on its own. A gold finish is also available for a warmer palette. Every piece in the set is covered by a one year warranty as standard, which is worth having on lamps that are charged and handled daily.
