Lace Lighting made of Parisian garbage

These are quite amazing.

Made strictly by hand in Paris, with no laser cutting involved. As explained by Gilles Eichenbaum, the designer, ‘Garbage’ lamps are discarded coffee and teapots turned into lace lighting fixtures.

Rustic and whimsical at the same time, these artistic creations were made into elegant recycled lighting fixtures that produce unusual shadows. Finely carved pierced tin is made into a beautiful lace and the shadows it throws are incredible.

Contact Gilles Eichenbaum to purchase or to see all of his lights.
