Hunched Mechanical Lighting

The Plumber Lamps are Rife With Personality

I love inanimate objects with personality, like these Plumber Lamps. Unfortunately, since there is not that much information about them -- even so much as their official name -- I've decided to go with Core 77's observation.

A simple concept, these Plumber Lamp are nonetheless rife with character. Designed with two versions in mind, one hovers overhead, while the other slouches somewhat depressingly to the side. Perfect for those looking to add a little rustic appeal to your living space, perhaps it can even be turned into a DIY project.
