Design Elio Martinelli's 1968 "Cobra Table Lamp" shows us exquisite design so unique it has endured 40 years. The Cobra table lamp offers direct light and features a swiveling arm which allows the enameled metal shade to be moved into various positions. I love the smooth curves of this modern lamp that is free of lines and angles. 75watt 14.25" w 15.75" h extends to 26" L Made in Italy by Martinelli Luce. $2500 Ships free from HiveModern.com

Horm of Italy does more than produce everyday bookshelves. Once again they have delivered a contemporary Italian design marvel in its Sendai bookshelves model. Sendai features custom construction in the supports for each shelf. Each support is warped and changed to unique shapes creating an interesting look that departs from the structural shape we associate in bookshelf construction. The support legs look worn and tired, but in truth provide ample support for the shelves. The colors of the wood supports are walnut and natural giving the appearance of an exotic wood or a yet to be discovered bamboo. Designer: Toyo Ito. Product information: here.

This time of year a small heater can come in handy to warm a bedroom, bathroom, or living room when it is needed. Most of the models on the market don't take much of a design approach and as a result, don't complement the décor of the home. The model featured here is "Bambu" from Deltacolor that was designed by Studio Dell'Acqua-Bellavitis. Here they take metal tubes up from a narrow base and fray them on the ends to create a natural look much like is seen in plants. The end result is a small heater that adds to the beauty of your home.
