Zoe Darlington Lamps

I've been really into lamps again lately. Perhaps it's the gray weather and my need for light! I came across Zoe Darlington lamps not too long ago and have been meaning to blog them because they're traditional yet oh so whimsical and unique. Each one is handmade in the UK with bases made by English artisans and the shades designed and hand crafted by Zoe Darlington herself.

About her inspiration Zoe says, "“My background in Fine Art informs all of my aesthetic decisions, whilst my time in fashion taught me how fabrics work and fuelled my love for colour and print. My aim is to combine the old and the new so beautifully that the lamps take on a life of their own and can live on through generations”. She does this so well I think!

For a limited time, you can find a few of her lamps at Anthropologie, too. Would you add a Zoe lamp to your home? Is this your style? I would own one in a second, my favorites are Oliver, Chester, Lucas and Aubrey.
