If the Rocking Lamp by M.OSS, a studio founded by Netherlands-based designer Marcel OSSendrijver, looks familiar, it is because it has been modelled after an iconic piece of furniture: the Eames Rocking Chair. Although not exactly the same proportions, it boasts similar materials and colorway. The wooden base adds a playful touch so that people can interact with the light in a way that doesn't requiring turning it on or off.
The only material the Rocking Lamp by M.OSS does lack is metal, but it has substituted that with a long rope cord that complements its overall aesthetic. Great for both traditional and more homes, the light fixture will bring a lighthearted essence to any space.
