Given its packaging, 'Milk Light' is a product that could easily be confused for an authentic beverage set. But as much as the [cork-topped glass bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-lamp) seem to be full of milk, upon closer inspection, consumers will see that the bottles themselves are actually [LED light designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-lamp).

The unconventional light-up product is styled after a classic milk bottle, making it a comforting and stylish addition to one's [bedside table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-table-light). To make the design as realistic as possible, details such as the built-in USB port and switch are neatly concealed on the bottle's base.

Knowing that a countertop display is often called for, the Luckies of London creative agency behind the project created an attractive set that allows a grouping of the bottles to be displayed in a crate-like cluster.
