The push pin night light

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Gadgets, Suppliers by david on the June 28th, 2007 at 10:00 am

The lamp that looks like a mega large pin in a piece of cork but is really a lamp. This is a great piece of design and innovation. Comes in Lime, Marine Blue, Mandarin and Matt Clear.

What is really good is the base is actually made from cork and can be used for pining messages to by using the real pins to fix your message to the base; no doubt some lamps will be fuller than others. pin light

This is not really practical for children’s rooms, as the light is activated by pushing the pin into the base.
