by Monica Stavar, posted in Lighting, on April 5th, 2012

In interior design isn’t always just about furniture and colors. Lights are also very important not only for your use, but also for ambiance. A nice lamp can change the whole aspect of a room, not only by night, when it’s lighted, but also by day. This is why the shape, dimension and color of the lamp and light are very important.

Three models of stylish lamps are offered by Serralunga. They were created by Marc Sadler in 2007 and are named Lady Mary, Miss Jane and Lady Jane. Probably their harmonious shape made their creator to name them after women. Lady Jane and Lady Mary have 2 meters and Miss Jane has 1,5 meters. This way, depending on your room’s height you’ll know that type to purchase.

Egg Basket Chandelier

by Loredana Sava, posted in Lighting, on March 31st, 2012

Easter is just around the corner and everybody waits for this Christian celebration impatiently. Grown-ups are filled with a religious feeling and they try to be better and do many good deeds, while children want to go egg hunting and gather as many eggs as possible. It’s tradition and it’s fun. Any way, nowadays kids use all sorts of baskets for this but in the past they put the Easter eggs in special wicker baskets that were woven by very skilled people in the village. These baskets are no longer used, but they are still remembered and used in design – like this Egg Basket Chandelier that is spectacular and unique.

The chandelier is more appropriate for a barn or a big hall, as it looks like a long and whitewashed board that is hanging from the ceiling, being supported by two sturdy pieces of rope. What is really unusual about the design of this chandelier are the five egg baskets that come attached to it, in an upside down position. Inside each basket you can see a light bulb, so there are five such light bulbs in total (100 Watt ones).

This unusual chandelier can now be bought for $440 from Harvest Home Stores.
