Wonder Whirl
With a name like Delirium Yum, you can expect an eccentric creation. German lighting guru Ingo Maurer, with fellow designer Sebastian Hepting, created this intriguing product that incorporates movement, light and water in a table lamp that is both organic and geometric.
The lamp comes with a tank, a polyethylene ball, silver particles, tablets for water preparation and the all-important bulb.
A magnetic field sets the bar at the bottom in rotation, and that movement creates a swirl within the tank, which is captured in the aluminium mirror fitted with the bulb (35 W). The speed and intervals of the rotation and the intensity of light can be adjusted electronically.
Made out of Corian, crystal glass, carbon fibre and silicone and priced at Rs. 3,09,750, it is available only at Firefly in Mumbai.
