These are so often seen in modern interiors some would say they’re a staple for home furnishings. I think they give off such a nice glow.

For just under $100, this floor lamp is pretty decent. I like the ’40s feeling to it, as it would add a little bit of antiquity to a room.
“Retake of a 1940s studio source light, scaled anew for residential sets. Adjustable-angle brushed metal head angles light easy on the eyes with a frosted glass diffuser. Metal pole on raised X-base adjusts in height 47″ to 67″. Hardware included.”

This is such a reasonable price for a very decent chandelier. It is actually quite elegant and would be perfect for those of you who qualify as apartment nomads, or anyone else who appreciates an easy affordable solution to lighting…
The chandelier ‘to go’ – comes in a pack with everything you need for this innovative fixture where the piece is actually held up by the light bulbs. It is wired directly to existing ceiling outlet wires and can be used 110V or 220V.
20″H x32″across

This cool candle holder has multiple arrangement options (stacked or individual) and reminds me of those cool old drawings of ‘architecture of the future’.
“..Elegant dark Wenge wood and cool and sleek aluminum make for a classy and elegant presentation of this new candle holder and the fact that it extends into all three axis leaves you lots of room for experimentation… Get a couple of them and start arranging them in different ways: arrange them back to back, or cascading in size, or turn them into a modernistic setting by stacking them…”

For anyone who has ever wanted one, now’s the time to purchase the larger version of Alexander Taylor’s Fold Lamp. I think we’ve posted this lamp three different times because we like it so much.

This lamp seems to be a slight variation on the ubiquitous globe light. Might be just enough detail to add a little more ‘oomph’ to your living or sleeping area.
“Table or floor lamp made of a white acrylic sphere with three elliptical laser cut holes and chromed metal structure.”
14 inch dia., $499
20 inch dia., $662
24 inch dia., $1103

These have an interesting textural look about them, and, considering their size, would certainly add a nice patterned lighting effect.
“Made from re-purposed fishing line woven with vines around a strong metal armature, these super-sized spheres capture the light, not the fish. Each includes a 12′ cord set with a plug end.”
18″ dia.

Energy-efficient and affordable, this light is quite the buy if you are limited in funds.
“The forward-thinking team at Knoend marries modernist aesthetics and eco-conscious principles for true 21st-centrury design. Building on the legacy of George Nelson’s ‘bubble lamps’ the Lite2go is a translucent geometric form that provides diffused, energy-efficient lighting from a pendant or tabletop position. The innovative configuration eliminates packaging.”

Spooky, bodiless head candle holders by Maxim VelÄovský:
“Little Joseph is a hand-painted, porcelain candle holder. We can’t decide if he’s sinister or sweet. Part of that will certainly depend on what you decide to do with his hair. Use dripless candles if you’d like to keep him bald, otherwise, give him pure white locks, beeswax locks, or hair in several shades of the rainbow.”
Made in the Czech Republic.

So, let me preface by saying I encourage you not to use the color bulbs, as they might might take away from the overall effect. But, what do I know? You might like some color in your lighting. That said, I do like the delicate glass globes and I fully support that the light comes with Halogen bulbs.
If you’re not too happy with the size (or price) of the one shown, it is available in smaller (and larger) configurations.
