Artek A333 is more familiarly also known as "Turnip", which perfectly reflects the design of the lamp. Turnip, designed by Alvar Aalto in the 1950s, impresses with its simple elegance. The Artek A333 lamp was originally designed for the building of the National Pension Service in Helsinki. The rings at the top of the shade emphasize the round shape of the lamp when the light filters through them. The stylish A333 lamp is a beautiful decoration element even when closed. The lamp is available either in white or with a brass-coated steel ring.
