The Evergreen Lamp is the latest fixture from designers Vibeke Skar and Jens Praet.
What's interesting about the Evergreen Lamp is the way it's supported. Rather than a stand or a chain, the lamp is held together via a pulley system. The light's height can be changed by pulling the string it's attached to with its adjustments secured on a hook attached to the wall. The shade itself is made from mouth blown glass that's been sandblasted for a crisp clean look.
