A cold beam of light falling through dust in a dark room

Halide One

A desk lamp of one glass rod and one anodised arm. Tune it from the cold of a north window to the warmth of a struck match.

Reserve one Edition of 400. Ships March 2027.

Press and hold to warm the light

Most lamps flood a room and leave you to live in it. Halide One draws a single line of light, then asks one question: how warm should it be tonight?

A clear glass rod lit from below, thin lime reflections along its length

One rod, drawn once.

Four hundred and twenty millimetres of borosilicate glass, pulled in a single draw and polished flat at both ends. Light enters at the base and travels the full length, so the rod glows evenly and you never see the source.

A machined aluminium bar at a low angle, light streaking along its brushed surface
The arm before anodising, straight off the mill.

An arm cut from one bar.

Machined from a single billet of 6063 aluminium, then anodised graphite. Along the inner edge runs one hairline of lime, the only colour on the lamp, so your hand finds the dial in the dark.

Tune the line.

  • North window. For drawing, reading and close work.
  • Afternoon. The desk at its most honest.
  • Evening. Warm enough to stop working.

Two rows of light.

In the base sit two rows of diodes, one cold and one warm. The dial blends them instead of tinting them, so what reaches the glass is light at a true temperature, never a filter over white.

Made of very little.
