Bookworms and late night book readers will appreciate these reading lamps made from recycled unused books. These reading lamps are made from stacks of vintage books and are an appropriate source of light if you plan on being up all night curled up with your favorite novel.
Great for a side table, shelf or a desk, these upcycled reading lamps are the ultimate novelist's dream decor item. The books used in these lamps were found at thrift shops, libraries and charities that no longer wanted them. Instead of destroying them, they were collected, stacked together, and used to create these stylistic book lamps. On top of the books tack is a traditional functioning lamp shade complete with a pull string. Each lamp features a different collection of stacked books, so no two lamps sold are ever the same.
