Description: NOMAD is a Danish inspired floor lamp that can be utilized in a number of applications ranging from being tucked into a corner for ambient light or adjusted for reading that perfect book. Regardless of where the Nomad is used, the lamp will warm any space, residential or commercial

The lamp is crafted from 100% recycled mahogany, sourced from a local manufacturer, Danish oiled, and can be disassembled into eight components for flat pack shipping. Each lamp is unique as the wood dictates the overall appearance of each piece.

ARCHETYPE 3 is a small design/build that initially started out with the intention of building live/work spaces and morphed into a contemporary furniture & cabinetry studio.

Is the angle/height of the lamp adjustable? It looks like there is a slot that would allow it to move if there was a thumb screw or wing-nut on on the connecting bolt. Or is that a chase for the cord?

An adjustable lamp would be a much more desirable/versatile design than a stationary lamp.

If not the angle/height is adjustable ,it would be functional if we can rotate the part that holds the lamp.
