Lampes flamme d'une bougie

A Little Something that no one has ever seen before:
A moving candle flame enveloped in a glass globe.

The combination of these two impossible components are quite charming when viewed. Of course, it's only a very convincing illusion. These unique electric bulbs simulate the color and actual physical movement of a burning candle flame. We have used these bulbs in our designs for the past 13 years, but we find this 'globe and flame' combination to be one of the most surprising usages. Natural aged brass and antique barnwood (late 1700's) are our signature materials- creating an image that is simultaneously contemporary and ancient. Only one pair was created in this style. Ultra low-wattage candle bulbs included. Designed, built, signed and dated by Art Donovan. Numbered #1/2 and #2/2.

The only thing you need to resist is the urge to blow out the candles when you leave the house.
