Created in 1972 by Richard Sapper, Tizio LED has become an iconic desk lamp produced by Artemide. Tizio LED has two articulated arms and a swivel head, balanced by a counterweight in varnished aluminium. The lamp's innovation lies in its design: a transformer is located in the base which switches the voltage from 230V to 12V and powers a halogen source through current-conducting rods and buttons. It provides adjustable, direct light at two intensities. It is also available in a micro version or with a halogen-powered source.

In 1959, Ernesto Gismondi combined engineering and design to found Artemide. His motto, “The Human Light,” represents the human being and their well-being, which are at the heart of attention in the design of lighting fixtures.
The brand Artemide quickly became a leader in lighting design and manufacturing.
From its early days, the Artemide design house invested in international groups such as “Memphis” by Ettore Sottsass, a pioneer in the creation of contemporary lighting. Artemide has multiplied collaborations and successes: the Tizio lamp by Richard Sapper, the Dalù table lamp, the Nessino lamp by Artemide, designed by Giancarlo Mattioli, and the Artemide suspension also stands out among these iconic Artemide creations, blending innovative design with the retro style of the 1970s.
