The iconic Ara table lamps, designed by the acclaimed Philippe Starck for the renowned Italian firm Flos in 1988, are a distinctive pair. These lamps are characterized by their unique shape and horn-like head. They also feature a circular, chromed steel base that complements the slender supporting structure and the lamp's horn-like shape. These lamps have an interesting mechanism: tilting the top of the lamp upwards turns it off, while tilting the head downwards turns it on.
