element touch led lamp

ooh! i love the curve and the cleanliness of this chrome-finished sculpture – i mean, faucet, er, led lamp. you simply touch the base to turn it on and off. i am totally picturing this on my huge gorgeous ebony wood desk with beautiful turned legs, that’s completely cleared off except for an imac with hidden cords and a vase of fresh white peonies (NOT!)…
form and function. that’s the stuff.
$85 at uncommon goods.

Very cool lamp. If I didn’t already have one on my desk, I’d grab one.

I love the picture you paint, knowing full well it’s an otherworldly scene we all aspire to…
This is a fun lamp. I really like the on/off/touch thing, though it always confounds me when I run across a lamp like that. I have been known to resort to unpluggage. Unless, of course, I happen to trip over it, or somehow bump into it, and it turns off, and the light bulb over my head “illuminates” the situation.

hi bri,
the only thing i don’t like about this lamp is the finish. my fingerprints will be all over that thing, which will require cleaning, which could be a deal breaker.
but i agree with you, it is fun. and you are AMUSING! i have been in hotels where they had touch lamps and i walked around the room trying to find the switch and 10 minutes later i figured it out. duh, right? 🙂
