Blossom-Embedded Bulbs

These Teardrop Pendant Lights Cast Feminine Floral Wall Shadows

— August 20, 2013 — Art & Design
Proving that home decor can be both frivolous and functional at the same, the Teardrop pendant lights by artistic designer Bodo Sperlein are magically illuminating.

Pure whimsy must have been the inspiration behind these blossoming bulbs as they have an unusually elongated droplet shape, as well as lots of tiny flower blossoms emblems embedded right into the glass. The dramatic shape instantly draws attention while the beautiful floral patterning and texture makes these lamps simply fascinating. Diffusing as well as channeling the light that stems from inside the bulb, the sculpted flowers also cast sweeping shadows across the walls in romantic flora patterns.

A room that requires a touch of charming feminine flair will do well to have the dainty and decorative Teardrop pendant lights by Bodo Sperlein hung up.
