When is a Lamp like a Little Blue Pill?

by Domestik Goddess on August 5, 2007

This wall-mounted lamp by Nonesiste, designed by Romolo Stanco and made in Italy, looks like a whole lot of fun… or at least, a real conversation-starter!

Turn it on — it rises up.

(Something to do with the electricity running through the “memory alloy” that it’s made of, but don’t ask me for scientific details.)

Turn it off — the lamp goes limp.

They call it the V/a.g.r.a.… of course!

With two sons in my home this lamp would not be called V\agra, it would be called teatherball.

Thanks so much for stopping by, metaDAD!

Tetherball, huh? It just goes to show that V\agra lamp’s the kind of a lighting fixture that the immature male can fully appreciate… even if it’s to turn it into a piece of sports gear!

(Is teatherball a sport, technically? The way I recall our lethal playground games being played, there should’ve been helmets and shoulder pads!)

Nice to see you again! :) Jen
