Decapitated Table Lamps

These Lamp Designs by Matt Pugh are Worth Losing a Head Over

These cheeky, delightfully charming barn animal and people-inspired table lamps by British designer Matt Pugh will have you wondering if their heads are concealed under their hat-like shades. Made from sustainable walnut or oak and by a team of craftsmen just west of England, these works of art would look great in any modern home or in the family room of a more rustic one.

The designs are crafted with wooden bases to resemble the body of a duck, dog, cat, man, or a woman, and all feature a light socket and lampshade in place of where their heads would be. The cute design of the animal-shaped lamps also makes them a great home accessory for a designer children’s room. Currently, Matt Pugh only sells his products out of the UK, but online boutique Howkapow has most of this collection available on its website.

So if you’re looking for a way to brighten up your space and that light bulb just went off over your head to invest in one of these artworks by Matt Pugh, then you can also rejoice in the fact that the bulb didn’t replace it.
