Lighting for mood and zones

This metal disc is held in place by a delicate yet sturdy cable structure, attached to the black lamp cord in a triangular formation, which also balances the lower disc horizontally. The cable terminates within the chrome-plated lamp body. The lower metal disc has a circular cutout, serving both as a reflector for indirect light and as a diffuser for direct light downwards.
