Untitled Whale Vase by Alessandro Beda
Incredibly simple, witty and whimsical. You don’t have to like flowers or whales to appreciate this.
Carve hundreds of fish from bone china and this is the effect. Each fish is 6″ long with a series of flouro lamps used to illuminate and reflect outwards.
Inspired by Manta Rays and modeled after sailboats rigging systems, the Tucci Manta Shade brings the Ocean to land. It’s a great looking patio umbrella, but it comes at a hefty cost. One thousand, four hundred and fifty dollars to be exact. Hmm… what to buy. An umbrella or Conspic?!
Mr. Sidell claims these were inspired by Japanese paper lamps, but all we see is Jellyfish. How about we compromise and say both? The Cassiopeia Lumin lamps are intended to be connected to timers and light up like an alarm clock to help you wake in the morning.
