Let There Be Light!

It's the shortest day of the year AND we're on the 3rd day of Hanukkah, a.k.a. the Festival of Lights, so we figure those two facts are reason enough to show off our amazing lamps! The sun may be out less and less but you can still let in the light. Can the sun give you light while adding style and sophistication to any room? We didn't think so.

This cool kitty casts a comforting glow. Made from tough yet flexible and breakage-resistant white polypropylene, this lightweight table lamp uses a cool-lighting/low energy compact fluorescent bulb that keeps the lamp cool to the touch. Great for both a child's room and for use anywhere you want to make a feline statement, and a must for the enlightened cat lover. Made in Italy; design by Ramin Razani. 9" x 6" x 12".





Today's imponderable: why have a thought outside the box when you can have a lamp in a box? Hmm, it's going to take a trip to the oracle to deconstruct that one. Meanwhile, you can enjoy this ultra-hip and tres chic journey into modern lighting. Of course, these lamps are meant to be displayed outside of their heavy duty, recyclable, reusable carrying boxes, and they sport terrific prints on their shades. This one features the bright multi-colored faces of the "Fab Four" - John, Paul, George & Ringo.. A must-have for any Beatles fan! Lamps are 21" tall. All Lamp-In-A-Box shades are cylindrical, 7” in diameter and 9” tall, designed to work with Lamp-In-A-Box bases, so you can mix and match shades! All shades are made of eco-friendly 100% biodegradable plastic. Lamp-In-A-Box bases and shades are UL listed when used together. Maximum wattage for Lamp-In-A-Box shades is 75 watts. Brushed nickel lamp base.






This lamp has received a lot of attention in our stores since it arrived. Made of polystyrene mesh, the effect is like a radiant spider's web, or perhaps a glowing dandelion. However one chooses to describe it, it's a fascinating design element. 60 watt max. 12" diameter. CUL approved.
