Entry Description

The Dandelion lamp just looks like a Taraxacum with its fluffy seed ball that it easily blown away with just one puff and it is borne of a thin and flexible stalk that seems to be swaying in the air. The lighting unit consists of a ball of transparent flutes diffusing the LED-generated light. It is available in floor lamp and hanging lamp versions.
