Sad but true, hearing the word Umbrella always ends up in my humming the so named song by Rhianna. Anyway on to more important things, though even I have to admit the song is catchy. Simply titled Umbrella Chandeliers, these amazing lighting fixtures are in fact made from umbrellas. I think the pictures say it all. Wow.
With this design, lighting designer Shelly Sabel, proves that even the simplest object can be turned into something truly captivating. These chandeliers are not yet being mass produced, but have already been featured at the American Design Club’s Hue Are You? And DIFFA’s 2009 Dining by Design (the first image is from this event). And yes, they are fully functional lights in addition to perfectly dramatic décor. See more from Shelly here. Â
