Description

The Tip of the Tongue lamp by Michael Anastassiades brings a luminous touch to any space. Its hand-blown opal glass shade appears to be on the verge of sliding off its gleaming brass base – a playful nod to the lamp’s whimsical name. The light shines softly and warmly through the glass sphere, creating a warm and welcoming ambience to any space, yet the lamp’s design enchants even when unlit.

The elegant Tip of the Tongue is incredibly versatile, designed for both wall and ceiling installation. Whether showcased on its own or as part of a glittering cluster, the luminaire adds timeless charm to any décor.
