Minale 2Shades Portable Lamp

The Minale 2Shades Portable Lamp is a rechargeable table lamp with twin shades: a focused task light below and a warm, ambient glow above, so one lamp moves from reading to atmosphere. Marcello Minale sketched it in 1969 and never built it; his son Massimo has now reimagined it, refined for performance while keeping the original 1960s silhouette.

The body is solid lacquered aluminium with solid brass detailing, available in three Milanese colourways: Olive Green, Silk Grey and Pure Aluminium. An integrated 2.5 W LED COB gives a warm white light of 2700 K, dimmable in three steps with the touch button on top. The lamp is fully cordless: it charges through the supplied 2 m magnetic USB-A cable and runs for around 11 hours at full brightness. Rated IP44, it is at home indoors and outdoors alike; bring it back inside after use.
