Inspired by a pepper grinder, the Astep Pepa Portable Table Lamp invites you to interact with the design in a fun way to change the intensity of the light. Italian designer Francesco Faccin referenced the essential kitchen accessory not only in the cylindrical shape of the base, but also in the flexible, rotating design. To change the brightness of the lamp, you only need to twist the conical shade, which moves on a 360-degree axis. A stainless steel cover with circular openings hides or unveils the LED light to help you change a room’s mood in seconds. Crafted from ash wood, Pepa boasts a natural color and elegant line patterns that become more pronounced as you turn on the light. Rechargeable batteries keep the lamp shining bright for up to 19 hours while also making it conveniently portable. The Astep Pepa Portable Table Lamp comes with a USB Type-C charging cable, charging plug not included.
