Andle is the name of a very playful lamp. Although it is a reinterpretation of the iconic miner's lantern, it looks nothing like it. With its bulbous form, branching wooden handle and small round opening, it passes more as a birdhouse. Absolutely adorable, the playful lamp is versatile. It not only can rest on tabletops as an alternative to more traditional lamps or mounted on the wall with an additional hook.
Available in white, the playful lamp is finished with different interior colors to better suit a variety of spaces including acid green, light blue, rust, white, silver, copper and gold leaf. Designed by Alessandro Squatrito, the playful lamp is great for contemporary homes or studios that want a bit more personality.
