The Mario Bros Pipe Lamp Brings Warp Pipes to Your Living Room
Michael Hines — April 20, 2013 — Tech
The Mario Bros Pipe Lamp is the new standard upon which all gaming-themed lamps will be judged. The ingenious lamp was created by Etsy merchant TRoweDesigns. It features iconic characters from the series as the pull string with a warp pipe placed below them. No, the characters won't disappear and reappear somewhere in your house every time you turn the lamp on and off.
Aside from being geeky, the Mario Bros Pipe Lamp has a vintage look to it. This comes from the iron pipe and the old school-looking light bulb. There are five characters to choose from for the pull string: Mario, Fire Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and Toad. Each lamp is custom made and sells for $200.
