The home office has been given new life during the 21st century, so task lights with high style are in high demand. Ian Thornton had this in mind when he designed the Frey Desk Lamp made of steel in an oil-rubbed bronze finish. The way the off-white shade is fitted to the curving arm is a design detail of note, as it lends the profile a subtle Asian flair. The base has a rocker switch for ease of turning the black desk lamp on and off.
