The Gayalux lamp was designed by Xiral Segard and looks like an alien eye ball or a way for our computers to spy on us, but inreality it is an exquisitely designed ball of concrete. Weighing just 5Kg and measuring 26 cm in diameter and 27cm in height, the ball is made from either plain concrete or a black concrete gloss. Made for indoor use only, the lamp takes a compact fluorescent bulb (23W, E27 – 220V, 50 – 60Hz) all for around €340.
If I said I’m desperate to find gifts that fit both the budget and the people I’m going to gift, would you understand? Buying gifts for friends and family is enough to put me in a mental institution ever single year because I really struggle to find things that I think will fit their personality. I’ve found a lot of them love handmade presents so my ability to knit has really come in handy, having said that, there are only so many mittens and scarves you can make before you see people mentally planning what charity they are going to give the 57th scarf to. But Crunchy Betty has saved my bacon, she has a tutorial on her blog on making pretty solid perfumes that can be given as presents. Natural, handmade and personalized, eat your heart out perfume houses!
