This Eiffel Tower lamp ad Taj Mahal table put classic, historic structures in common, everyday places.
Both products of Belgian artists Studio Job, these pieces were recently presented at Design Miami, which is a "global forum for design" that happens twice annually. The most recent five day conference was held in Miami, with another set for June in Switzerland.
The Eiffel Tower lamp is a brilliant adaptation of the French landmark that will act as an elegant conversation piece. The Taj Mahal table literally flips the script by putting the magnificent Indian palace underneath the table.
The Eiffel Tower lamp is made of patinated bronze and has a polished bronze lampshade attached to the bent tower top. The Taj Mahal table is also made of patinated bronze.
