3. Wastberg desk lamp, £350.00 This light by Studio Ilse uses iron to convey stability and trust, wood for warmth and life, and porcelain for its slight transparency. Get it: scp.co.uk


4. Mack with Blue Cord Table Lamp, $89.95 Bright blue cording adds a nice surprise within the clear glass base of this table lamp. Get it: Crate & Barrel

5. Heavy Light, £425.00 Available with a white, light grey, or dark grey hand-cast concrete shade and base, this innovative light aims to challenge the perception of materials (and is a smart way to go green). Get it: twentytwentyone.com

Holy cow! I understand the concept the people at twentytwentyone are trying to go for with helping people value what they own and appreciate sustainable materials, but that’s a steep price for a couple of pieces of concrete (hand-cast or not). I guess from one perspective they’ve got it right. No way would I ever discard a lamp I paid that kind of money for. It would become an heirloom:)
