Adjustable table lamp in matte black finish, consisting of three parts: a swiveling cylindrical base from the sides of which extend two parallel, straight, flat arms. Attached to and pivoting from the lower arms, a pair of identical but longer arms, weighted by a slightly rounded, rectangular piece. Attached to and pivoting from this middle arm, another pair of identical arms, still longer, with a smaller rectangular weight at one end, and a reflector housing the halogen bulb at the other. CONDITION - Lamp was showroom model and therefore has wear, showing as tiny chips revealing white surface beneath black. Chips to all surfaces, especially counter weights.
