Mercury Lighting from another Galaxy

Some say lighting makes the room, but this company says lighting makes the man. Artemide has been making artistic statements with commercial and decorative lighting solutions since 1959, with current holdings in six countries. Now, they give you the Mercury Suspension and the Mercury Ceiling. It comes in two flavors and two styles, offering a choice between an aluminum or chrome finish and either a ceiling mount or a suspension model that brings it closer to earth. The source of its illumination is two 200W halogen lamps, included. The Mercury is aptly named, because it closely resembles large globs of mercury suspended in mid-air. Their unique finish reflects natural light by day, and at night the light takes on a unique, eclectic glow. Yes, it is contemporary, but for those with a flair for the here and now, it’s a perfect vehicle for party conversation. With its $2,700 price tag, it better be.
