These tumbleweed lights are strange in all the right ways. You probably won't find these lights in the typical modern home, but that's okay, because these aren't your typical lights.
Tumbleweeds are synonymous with old western environments, typically a 21st century home would not be the place for one. These lights break that mold as they are a beautiful piece of modern design without losing the old western touch they are known for. Designer Jean Landry proves the point that the wild wild west is very much alive and well with this piece.
The tumbleweed itself covers the actual light fixture as if draped over top of it. The design is not complex and for good reason; the simplicity of having just the tumbleweed, bulb and plug makes the point very well. Had more been incorporated to the design, it could have made the design tacky. This tumbleweed finds perfect balance between chic and rugged.
