LEDtube A
Marset | Daniel López
The Ledtube has long been one of the most functional products in the collection, a reading light with a beam that has the clear purpose of illuminating without disturbing. It has no glare and its light can be pointed in any direction. It’s so easy to use that it’s almost instinctive, and so versatile that you hardly notice it’s there if you don’t use it.
Several versions of the Ledtube have been released: the original, the mini, the USB and the surface mount. Marset now presents a new surface edition, just as functional but more compact. The switch is integrated in the base, maximum ergonomic design, with absolute flexibility to move it in any direction. The Ledtube A also incorporates the honeycomb louvre that traps peripheral light in all directions and prevents glare.

Brand
Marset
Marset was established in 1942 as a family business, not making lighting, but as a foundry. That foundation in casting metals did eventually segue into lighting design, however, with Francisco Marset formally establishing Marset Illuminacion in 1965.
The decades spent experimenting with and molding metal translated well into the contemporary lighting industry: manipulating all kinds of materials to create unexpected, atmospheric lighting effects.
