Marine Light by designer Nir Meiri makes use of seaweed as a primary element. While the seaweed plays a passive role, it is its presence that gives the lamps their unique style. Seaweed is applied over metal strips while it is still wet. As it dries, it shrinks and sticks to the metal strips, forming a lampshade. A finishing coat is applied over the seaweed to keep it preserved. The final result is this impressive and unique looking lamp you see here.
