The Light Drop Lamp from Pulpo is a Fresh Take on Retro Design

— July 16, 2013 — Art & Design
Available in both small and large sizes, the Light Drop lamp from home decor retailer Pulpo is created by talented design studio 27 Berlin. This domed desk lamp is a contemporary revival of a retro aesthetic made popular during the 60s and 70s.

The Light Drop lamp from Pulpo is made out of a combination of a cork base and a hand-blown glass surrounding shade that is topped off with a perforated metal plate element.

This accent element is available in both a choice of a copper and powder-coated white grey finish along with the lamp's blue, clear and violet glass hues. Designed with sustainability in mind, this retro-modern light fixture uses an energy-saving light bulb that emits a soft glow of glass-diffused light.
