Table Lamp Set – Seven Galaxy Orbs Lit on a Solid Wood Base

A set of seven lit glass orbs that turns a shelf into a small night sky

Seven glass spheres sit in a row on a wooden platform, each one printed with a different galaxy: Canis Major, Magellanic Cloud, Maffei I, Cygnus A, the Milky Way, Andromeda and Maffei II. Lit from below, the printed detail reads clearly and the whole set gives off a soft, even glow. It works as low light for an evening rather than as a reading lamp.

Why choose this lamp set?

The appeal is in the detail. Each orb carries its own motif and color, so the set stays interesting up close as well as across a room. The wood and glass give it enough weight to stay put on a shelf or desk.

• Seven distinct orbs: every sphere has its own galaxy motif and color, so no two points of light look the same
• Wood and glass build: a turned wooden platform holds the glass spheres steady and keeps the set from sliding
• USB powered: plugs into any standard USB port, so you can run it from a laptop, hub or wall adapter
• Two base shapes: a 31 cm rectangular bar for a shelf edge, or a 16 cm round platform for a side table
• Compact footprint: each orb measures 4 cm across, so the set takes up little depth on a crowded surface

Switch it on at dusk and the row of orbs carries the rest of the evening.

Place the rectangular base along a bookshelf and the orbs line up like a small constellation; the round base groups them more tightly for a nightstand or a coffee table. The USB cable runs from the back of the platform, so you can route it behind furniture. Wipe the glass with a dry cloth now and then to keep the light crisp.
