Wood light bulb-shaped lampshades

By Roni Brunn | March 24, 2009 | News

Porky Hefer of South African “”"creative consultancy”"” Animal Farm designed these light bulb shaped lampshades called Lite:

They’re made from turned wood, a pottery-like technique that involves shaping the raw material as it spins.  According to Elle Decor, these shades are “all about craft-based design, sustainable processes and materials, and about being ‘lite’ on the environment.”  Sounds obnoxiously precious, but I love the result anyway.

They come in these finishes:

It’d be cool to assemble a chandelier out of a bunch of these, like the Droog 85 Lamps (only heavier):
