Handle Lamp

Handle Lamp takes the shape of a small table light built around a carrying handle, borrowing the honest look of an old lantern or a workshop lamp brought indoors. The handle arches over the body and gives the piece its character, turning what might have been a plain shade into something with a bit of story to it. It is made for the quieter hours, sitting on a bedside table, a hall console or the corner of a desk where a softer pool of light is wanted rather than an overhead glare. The printed body works as a shade, softening the output into something warm and diffuse. By day it reads as a simple sculptural object; after dusk it comes into its own, the sort of low, steady light you leave on late into the evening.
