Pablo Designs Elise Table Lamp – Frosted Column, 12", 18" or 32"

A glowing frosted column on a machined-aluminum or marble base: Pablo Pardo’s machine-age classic, from a 12-inch accent to a 32-inch statement.

Elise is a tall frosted column that glows softly from within, set on a precision-machined aluminum base, or, on the 32-inch size, polished Carrara White or Marquina Black marble. An in-line dimmer takes it from bright to a whisper of light. It is available in 12-inch, 18-inch and 32-inch heights in Black, Brass or Silver aluminum.

Designed by Pablo Pardo, founder of Pablo Designs.

Buy once: durability and care

Elise carries a one-year Pablo Designs warranty. Our care advice: dust the frosted column with a soft microfiber cloth (no solvents or paper towels), wipe aluminum bases dry, and treat marble with a pH-neutral stone cleaner; use the bulb type Pablo specifies for your size.
