Cabbage Leaf Lampshades? Maverick Nir Meiri Makes It Possible! https://pepuphome.com/cabbage-leaf-lampshades/ Tue, 10 Dec 2019 10:22:40 +0000 https://pepuphome.com/?p=938 Talk about transformation...!

A great lamp can literally make or break your home decor. In a number of our articles, we have vouchsafed for the importance of great lamp “Cabbage Leaf Lampshades”. For us, a lamp not only has to emit the perfect ambient light but also must look unique. So, when we saw this magnificent creation by maverick designer studio Nir Meiri, we were smitten just at the first look.

Cabbage Leaf Lampshades

This lamp, made of red cabbage leaves, is a result of a tie-up between the London-based studio and Indian ace designer Vaidehi Thakkar. Now, if you think what use a mere cabbage leaf can be off, you would be surprised to see the intricate pattern created naturally on to the lampshade (the cabbage leaf) as soon as the light is lit. We would have perhaps never known the artistry of a leaf created by the busy network of veins had it not been this lamp.

Named as the ‘Veggie Lights’, this series has two distinct lamps – the one which has a more rugged appeal, and the other one where the leaves have been shaped off to present a more elegant version. Talking about this unique concept, Meiri told Dezeen,

The design itself was a long process of prototyping and understanding how the light will render this material in the best way….. The final object was a table lamp that gives the material the main stage while keeping the overall design elegant and sleek.

Thakkar’s contribution to this design came in the form of preserving this perishable lamp cover. According to her, the “fiber flats” “Cabbage Leaf Lampshades” were created by separating and soaking the leaves in an antifungal solution and drying them until they become thinner, almost like a paper.

Both these lamps from the collection are unique. However, if you ask us, we would definitely vouch for the uncut version for its rugged appeal. What would you go for?

The nomenclature of this table lamp is pretty impressive, Bulbous, which comprises of a bulb right at its top head. However, the most intriguing factor of this lamp is its structure, which is segmented akin to a caterpillar. The ones made of a single block of wood do not have a tilting factor.

Among the socketed products are the desk light and the mirror light. They both are priced at $1140 and $1650 respectively.

2. Jazz Up Your Grandpa’s Rocking Chair

Rocking chairs are one of the best furniture ever. They not only look amazing but are amazingly relaxing as well. However, the archaic ones – no matter how good the wood is – do not always look great with our modern home decor. If you have a rocking chair at home and are wondering whether to keep it or discard, you can simply jazz it up with cushions and make it look all anew. Cushions are a great hack that adds to the relaxation and also amps up the look of any furniture. However, make sure you select the colors accordingly to match up to the archaic vibe of the chair.

You can use it to frame collages or your favorite portfolio.
