Design table lamp Beat Table with tilting lampshade The Beat Table table lamp is another variation of the famous Beat lamp series and complements it as a practical element of the interior. The table lamp combines a round cast iron base, a slender frame with a forward-tilting joint and the series' characteristic conical brass shade. The hand-beaten brass on the inside provides a particularly warm light, which is emitted through the round opening onto a limited area - ideal as accent lighting next to the bed or in the reading corner. The Beat range was designed by Tom Dixon, a British interior designer who founded his own company in 2002. The Beat series embodies expressive minimalism and impresses with its quality and adaptability. Tom Dixon modelled it on traditional brass cooking pots and water vessels from India - equipped with a dimmer switch on the base
