LIGHTING WEEK: FLAWLESS FLOOR LAMPS AND A LIFE SIZE HORSE!

Jayson Home & Garden - Porter Brass Lamp - $550 (61" high, brass base and polished brass shade; three-way bulb compatible)(above)

Okay. This is the last day of LIGHTING WEEK on Nbaynadamas and I've just scratched the surface of what's out there as far as cool lighting. What's a girl to do? Help.

Anyhoooo...as promised, a panoply of fab floor lamps. This is for those readers who liked the blue floor lamp I posted earlier this week and for my mother who has been desperately searching for the right floor lamps for her living room. Well...here you go!

Hive Modern - Horse Lamp - $6,542(Life-sized horse with a light on its head. This equine floor lamp is one of a three piece collection of animal furniture designed by Front which also includes a Rabbit Lamp and a Pig Table. The Horse Lamp is available in black only)(above)
I know you might think this last lamp, the big life-size horse, is a joke. It is not. I kind of like it for the right space. In fact, I actually really like it. If I had a huge modern loft in New York City, with white walls, sleek furniture, an overall minimalist aesthetic and lots and lots of extra cash...I might just plunk down the thousands it costs to own it. Definitely a conversation starter! I've always wanted a horse...this is cheaper than buying my own real thoroughbred..right? (In reality, I do not own a huge modern loft in NYC, I do not have a minimalist ultra modern aesthetic and most importantly, I do not have lots and lots of extra cash...so therefore, I will not be purchasing the Horse Lamp. Oh well...boo hoo...)
