well these are decadent...
the material is a surprising choice, thick & decidedly luxurious leather. dimming the light in leather, with its sort of provocative side zipper makes for an interesting and unusual combination of material meets lighting, decadent meets utilitarian. i really love these, for both residential and commercial settings. they are called "tubo" lights and are offered up by formagenda, you can see more of what they offer here.
it seems also that there is a slight nod to fashion here, if you want to look hard enough...enjoy!
