Tube Light Floor Lamp
Made by Classicon
Designed by Eileen Gray
Eileen Gray conceived the Tube Light in the 1920s as a study in reduction. A single luminous column, nothing added that need not be there. The premise was radical for its moment and remains quietly so today.
ClassiCon's reissue honors that restraint absolutely. The floor lamp stands on a lacquered titanium base that rotates freely, allowing the light to be directed without adjusting the column itself. Remove the base entirely, and the lamp leans against a wall with the same composure, as much sculpture as light source.
- Neon 58-watt light source
- Metal base in lacquered titanium
- Rotates in any direction when used with the base
- Designed to stand freely or lean against a wall
Gray's sensibility, rationalist but never cold, runs through every proportion. Form and function exist here in direct conversation, with nothing left over.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the Tube Light and when?
Eileen Gray designed the Tube Light in the 1920s as part of her broader investigation into functional, unornamented form. Gray was a pioneering Irish designer and architect whose work bridged Arts and Crafts craft traditions with the emerging rationalist sensibility of European modernism.
Can the Tube Light be used without its base?
Yes. The lamp is designed to function in two configurations: standing upright on its lacquered titanium base, or leaning directly against a wall without the base at all. Both positions are intentional to the original design.
What light source does the Tube Light use?
The ClassiCon Tube Light uses a neon 58-watt light source, which produces the characteristic linear glow consistent with Gray's original concept of a single, uninterrupted luminous column.
Is ClassiCon an authorized reissue of Eileen Gray's designs?
ClassiCon is the authorized producer of several Eileen Gray furniture and lighting designs, working in close collaboration with the estates and rights holders to ensure fidelity to the original specifications and proportions.
How does the Tube Light's base rotate?
The lacquered titanium base is engineered to swivel freely, allowing the column to be directed toward any point in a room without repositioning the lamp itself. This adjustability was integral to Gray's functional approach.
