About
The Escargot floor lamp, designed by Le Corbusier, draws inspiration from nature and his philosophy of form and light.

The lamp provides a widespread indirect light, perfect for creating ambiance in living rooms and studies.
The Escargot features a body crafted from aged cast brass, lending a sense of timeless elegance.
