Sonneman's reissued the Trienalle lamp  

OK...but I didn't see youir smiley face
that symbol did not show up.
This lamp is NOT called the Trenalle...it's a total re-working of the long discontinued lamp and it's called the Treluci. Sonneman is not trying to hawk it off as a reproduction, ripoff or knockoff.
It's not the same thing.
It's also bigger than the original design. It's not for anyone, but anyone who liked the Arteluce and calls this lamp "hideous" needs to consider getting glasses.
What I object to is your choice of words. The next time you post something you have, I'll be as inappropriately honest as you were.
I just read your "clever" comments about me not being in college anymore....who in the heck do you think you are, anyhow?
Keep your comments to yourself, lol

I love the bold scale of the lamp reissue,it has a power all its own.

what's the metal like,...
what's the metal like, barry? is it heavy, solid (the foot)?
it certainly has an architectural quality!

bj...it's heavy & substantial
Very well made, typical of a Sonneman lamp, desite the change of corporate ownership.
It's jolly huge too.

I found this
Looks even better!!
