Toy Lamp by Ryan McElhinney

You met the girl of your dreams. But…when she comes to your apartment & sees your action-figure collection on display – all bets are off. Maybe you don’t want to let go of the past – so here’s a solution. First, put the action-figures in storage and then order a Toy Lamp from London-based designer, Ryan McElhinney. Each lamp is unique – made of recycled toys that are bonded, coated & painted to form a sculpture. It will shed some light on things…and hopefully help you get that second date.

Each lamp is, of course, handmade and one of a kind.

326 Snare Drum Light

This light rocks. Tap the real-life drum and this rock-inspired light turns on. Tap it again and it turns off. Play Led Zeppelin’s Moby Dick and it’ll be like an out of control strobe light. The Moby Dick part is a joke. Made from a real snare & drum hardware, this  luminescence is handmade to order in New Zealand by the band from 326 Design Collective.

Microphone Light Pendant

If you have a house party at your place, this will get broken or at least torn out of the socket by its 15-ft cord. But that’s to be expected, it looks exactly like a classic rock-n-roll microphone. Which, for the record, is a Shure SM58. Anyway…this unique pendant light holds a soft 6-watt bulb & is made of cherry wood veneer with metal mesh over the bulb.
