Unusual chandeliers: from designers to hand-made

Who said that there are no original, unique, unique in concept lamps? May the liar's vile tongue be cut out! Follow me, dear reader, and I will show you real pearls of design thought!

Unusual designer chandeliers

As a rule, they are quite expensive and are sold in specialized stores. They can’t fit into any interior, but if “dance” precisely from this detail - they will look just great.

Lamps from Ingo Maurer

German company specializing exclusively on designer chandeliers. It was managed and conceptualized by the talented Ingo Maurer, a designer focused exclusively on lighting fixtures. Behind each model in any catalog there is a specific idea, thought or feeling.

For example, lamps with wings. They symbolize an idea, a sudden insight. Who knows, maybe they will add a little inspiration to a writer or artist?

Or another option for inspired writers (or accountants, who knows?). Chandelier Zettel'z 5 in a sense interactive. A frame made of stainless steel, heat-resistant glass and... a pack of blank paper sheets are supplied. What will appear on them - quotes from the Bible, graphs of increasing income or drawings from the Kama Sutra - It's up to you to decide.

How will the chandelier be positioned?, it will become oval, spherical, abstract - too Only the creator decides.

But man is not satisfied with creativity alone. For the kitchen (or any other room of your perverted taste) two unusual lamps were designed. First - "Canned light».

And the second - "Campari Light"(real Campari, you can drink it in an emergency).

How about a simple idea to put light bulb to light bulb? Why not! Both a tribute to the inventors of the lamp and a stylish accessory. The idea quickly spread to the people, and now you can buy table lamps of this type not only at Ingo Maurer.

Remember, we wrote above that lamps can reflect not only an idea, but also an emotion? "Porca Miseria" fully confirms this statement.

In the most urgent cases, you can tear off a piece from the chandelier and continue the selfless scandal.

And if you don’t think there are enough lamps made from cans and bottles or they weren’t original enough, you can buy chandelier made from clothes hangers.

If this doesn’t seem interesting enough, take a closer look at “To the tears of a fisherman" This is a rare case when the name really perfectly reflects the essence. And it's simple: fishing net with crystal pendants.

And in conclusion of the conversation about Ingo Maurer, we will show not so much a provocative, bold and original, but a cute lamp. Minimalistic, but nevertheless gentle – butterflies are “glued” to the rim of the light bulb. And no hangers or broken dishes. Almost romantic.

Lamps from SigmaL2

What about the assurance that there should always be good weather in the house? The designers disagree. Sometimes there should be a thunderstorm in the house, and the sun should be blocked clouds (the intensity and direction of the light can be changed).

Another large section of amazing lamps are openwork and wicker models that throw off unusual shadows. For example, a gothic-style bedroom would suit a lamp like this, suggestive of forest thickets, needles and fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm.
