Graycart Irregular Scrap Light

Updated Jul 10, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

A less perfect form than Graycart's Disc from its Scrap Lights collection, this irregular piece, like it sounds, comes with the unique, handcrafted feel that you would expect from a piece made out of salvaged cardboard. The diffusing shade offers a nice extra touch of casting a compelling light pattern on surrounding walls.
