Simple, organic, and elegant, the Gina Lamp from Seascape is made from supple green materials like woven grass and bamboo. It’s a simple design that would dress up many a bedside table. We love both the natural materials and the way the light shines through it with soft organic elegance.
+0Just a shame people can’t be a little more creative! Maybe an interesting material, but the lamp doesn’t make any any more use of it than a lamp from my grandmother’s bedroom - which is fine, but nothing to crow about…
+0I have to slightly disagree with you Daniel :-) because, frequently, cutting edge design is so far ahead that it makes little or no impact.
It’s much more likely a significantly greater number of people will purchase this lamp simply because its design is “standard / main stream” … with the [presumably] more sustainable materials used being an added extra for the planet :-).
Cheers

+0If they care about the environment so much, why does this thing cost $190?

That is nice. It reminds me of those Pottery Barn catalogs that look like they were shot in a New England beach cottage. Very airy and light and natural.
