Hand-hammered Copper Lamps
Not everybody thinks of metal when they’re shopping for lamps to brighten their living rooms, but I like these copper lamps from Cobre. Copper is a lot warmer than other metals, so it doesn’t lend that cold industrial feel that stainless steel can give off. And the decorated velvet shade on this lamp just makes me want to touch it. It’s $405 though, so I better keep my fingers off. If you like copper furnishings, check out the company’s web site, because there are lots of hand-hammered offerings, such as sinks, rain chains, mirrors, vases, bowls, and even pillows (yup, pillows with copper entwined in the design).
