Lamps and lights

Before I moved here, I didn't  realize just how different lamp styles are from one area of the world to the next.  Here are some examples of lamps I have seen in the last few years.  Although initially I did not care for many of the lamps, I have grown to like many of them.




This famous lamp design is by Danish designer Poul Henningsen, 1927.  
There are versions of this lamp everywhere. 


A lamp store window display at Christmas time. 


A close-up of the St. Lucia lamp.


I think I took this picture because I was considering buying these.  I did not, but I still like them, 


Although not a modern lamp, you have to appreciate the fact that it is simply not unusual to have a
 four foot candelabra at the hairdressers!

And now a few from IKEA.  
I have taken these photos from the net, although
I have seen all of these in the IKEA store here in town. 

  

Here is another...




The above lamp, in one form or another, is 
EVERYWHERE!


I love this lamp.  I saw it in an artisan shop in town. 


This is from a local light show a few winters ago.  


This is one of the torches in one of the city squares.  
SO lovely...
