"I find it amazing when form follows function. Not only are the gourd lamps beautiful to look at with the lights on, turn the lights off and the lamps transform. Not only does the lamp itself look fascinating, but the light it casts creates beautiful and interesting designs across the room. Check out the lamps both on and off. It was very hard to chose any of these lamps." Standing lamp XII by night 1 by *Calabarte ( Suggested by ~twilightbeta and Featured by `KubusRubus )

I get the feeling that sometimes you start by designing the pattern on the wall and then sort of project it to the gourd :p

Awesome work
