Sea creatures have long been a source of inspiration for home decor, especially light fixtures, and the Manta 2.0 lamp proves why. Inspired by the curving lines of the large stingray, it provides a soft illumination that will brighten up any room while bringing a taste of the ocean to living spaces as well. Not to mention that the Manta 2.0 lamp's sleek and simple silhouette will complement just about any existing decor.
Designed by Joeri Claeys, the Manta 2.0 lamp is crafted out of bent three millimeter iron lacquered in white. As Plus Mood notes, it casts "a beautiful atmospheric light and mysterious shadow." It is this quality that will stimulate people's creativity and imagination.
