Fab.com Flash Sale. Vessel Light Diagonal Bronze , 20% offFab.com First came the bulb, now a fitting home for it. The Vessel is influenced by the original limited-edition shade Samuel Wilkinson created with Decode to show off the energy-saving Plumen 001 bulb he made with the British company Hulger. The sculptural form celebrates the Plumen’s twisted shape—its glass shade sliced at an angle to reveal the quirky light source (sold separately on Fab.com). When lit, the bronze tinted glass mutes the light without hiding the bulb, producing an irregular, holographic reflection.

picsiwishitook: This is a famous set of stairs in a cafe in Prague. I don’t know the info for this particular picture of them, but it’s one of the better ones out there. The exposure values are really nice around the golden edges, and the lighbulb is nice and glowingly over-exposed. Credit has to go to the architect as much as the photog for this.
