Asterisco is an imaginatively designed table lamp that combines four discrete components: a shade, stem, lectern and red cloth cord. In a nod to its name, the light acts as an asterisk (*): a pointer to the handy lectern below.; Designed by Cuatro Cuatros. A delightfully quirky character, the Asterisco lamp's clever construction is perfect for writing notes and leaning a book, making it the ideal companion for a variety of personalities: from the assiduous administrator to the creative chef, and the studious student to the wise wordsmith.
