These grenade lamp fixtures add some boom to the home. These real-life grenades bring rugged design, as well as ambient lighting, to an explosive design.
Having a grenade-styled lamp is a cool way to spice up your room and show you have some rough and tumble style, but having a real grenade to light on fire is a different story. These grenades are real military surplus and have been re-worked into simple, light fixtures with a dangerous edge.
The line of grenade lamp fixtures varies greatly due to the fact that they are real grenades. There are frag, flash and even smoke grenades that pose as lamp fixtures. I'm not entirely sure how safe having real life grenades and lighting them on fire is, but the design is cool enough to take a chance on. These lamps definitely make a huge impact.
