Marumado Lamp - Ring Joint Desk Lamp

I was going to comment, but Michael pretty much summed up everything I have to say.

The stick with two round loops on it could BE the iconic part of the design, but is lost.

The top looks like a regular lamp from anyplace.

The base is boring.

Can you push the loop elements further in size/feature/focus? Can the light be a lit loop (halo?!) somehow mimicking the functional part? How does it look OFF as sculpture is just as important as how it looks on. Would you want this OFF on your desk? What does it add visually or does it take up more visual space than it deserves?

I have a few thoughts I might sketch out if OK by you and can drop back in hereā€¦
