The tube or essence of the light. Since the patent was filed in 1967, Sammode's original tube lamp has become a classic of French industrial and architectural lighting. 100% French manufacturing for this simple-looking lamp - a transparent glass tube mounted in a sealed steel structure - which uses a sophisticated technique. Popular among professionals for its performance and robustness, the Sammode tube lamp quickly became cult object. Sammode lights are used in many prestigious buildings such as the National Library of France in Paris, the Ray and Maria Stata Center designed by Franck Gehry in Cambridge (United States) or the Mama Shelter Hotel in Paris, decorated by Philippe Starck. Sammode brings its industrial excellence to the general public by creating a specific range of lighting for the home. All Sammode Studio lights are manufactured, assembled and packaged at its Châtillon-sur-Saône plant in the Vosges. These quality lamps with their industrial design combine timeless lines and the latest technology. They provide appropriate, refined lighting, as well as a singular industrial aesthetic with a strong identity.

Waterproof (IP68), it can be used inside, outside and in wet rooms. This lamp adds charm and character to your garden, terrace, living room, bathroom. Inserted into a lacquered steel frame, the transparent glass tube reveals its internal reflector in tinted aluminium as well as the metal grilles that cover the two attractive satin LED bulbs (provided). The grilles filter the light gently without dazzling you. The tinted reflector imbues the light with subtle silver, copper, brass or bluish shades.

The Balke wireless lamp is a versatile pick for contemporary interiors, thanks to its sleek black finish and minimalist design. I love how it combines practicality with style, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, especially in spaces that call for a modern, understated lighting solution. It works well in industrial-inspired settings, kitchens, or even outdoor terraces when mounted securely. For styling tips, consider pairing it with other monochromatic or matte finishes, or using it to highlight statement furniture pieces. Its wireless feature means it offers flexibility in placement, so you can easily move it around to highlight different areas or create focal points in open-plan living spaces. Overall, a functional yet fashionable addition to any modern home.
