The Zero Pendant Brings a Grungy Side to Beautiful Light Fixtures

— January 17, 2014 — Art & Design
The Zero Pendant from the Oxidation Lab makes grungy look good. These light fixtures use rust to add a rustic look to a sleekly designed lamp.

Chandeliers, lamps and other light fixtures are often made to look luxurious. This makes sense for many homes but the Oxidation Lab is doing something different. These self-oxidized lamps give you a nice, sleek, ergonomic design in the simple curvature of the lamp itself but gives a more unrefined edge with the rust.

The fact that each lamp is hand-oxidized means that each reacts differently and gives a unique product to each owner. You'll never have to worry about having the same industrial lamp fixture in your living room as someone else. These lights create an amazing lounge like atmosphere that's hard to replicate
