has this Marcel Wanders’ Zeppelin lamp, which it describes as “designed to look like it had cobwebs all over it.” Readers’ takes range from “very Edward Gorey haunted house” (I’ll be the judge of that!) and “creepy and macabre” to “fetish-inspired” to “it looks like a sea urchin” (ummm…). I like anything that makes people stop and work to classify it, but to me, it’s not cobweb-y enough! Let’s see some strands, some tatters, some mummified moth carcasses! Creepy and macabre indeed!

    I saw this lamp in my Metropolis magazine and immediately thought, OstrichClaw! It’s so nice to see this mysterious and spooky and altogether ooky fixture gracing your site.
