Timing is everything. And sometimes timing is just plain bad. To wit, I recently bought a pendant lamp for my dining room, installed it and was really pleased breaking bread below it…and then I came across the petal lamp shade.

Now I’m experiencing a serious case of buyer’s remorse.

The Petal Lamp Shade has approximately 200 “petals” that were individually cut from recycled PET bottles, heated and engraved with subtle patterns. They dangle 21.6 inches from a stainless steel disk. Lovely.

The designer’s Etsy profile says she is an architect in Ankara, Turkey. I haven’t seen her buildings but the objects she creates from old soda bottles are amazing. Check out the Blue Bowl, Flower Bowl No 5 and Flower Napkin Holders.

Go to gulguvenc’s Etsy shop to check availability and prices. She also has a blog.
