A contemporary multi-use lighting tool, the industrial-inspired Mayday Utility Lamp has been given an elegant restyling. Now dimmable, Mayday can brighten a space with your desired level of illumination. Incorporating a large white funnel constructed entirely from hard-wearing, water-resistant, injection-moulded polypropylene, a practical handle crafted in light grey aluminium and two spikes to wind up the durable 5-metre cable, Mayday embodies stylish practicality and versatility with ease. Initially defined as a table lamp the large hook at the end of the handle means that Mayday can be installed in a number of environments, whether placed on a table, the floor or suspended.
