The telescoping radio antenna, a clever piece of industrial design found on countless portable radios and automobiles throughout the 20th century, is fading into history, but this table lamp brings it back to life in a bright new manner. Composed of just three main elements, FM uses the unmistakable telescope-like form of an FM antenna as the arm for a small but powerful light source. Adjustable via the arm and the base, and equipped with a micro-switch dimmer, the Davide Groppi fixture is a brilliant tribute to an important piece of design history.
