Lampshades made from bowlers and tophats -- Boing Boing Gadgets

By at 3:08 am Thursday, Jan 29

Over on Boing Boing Gadgets, our Rob's got word of these "Jeeves and Wooster" lampshades in the shape of a bowler and a silk topper. Old, much-loved, timeworn silk toppers and bowlers are actually surprisingly easy to pick up for a song on eBay, so the UKP450 asking price here could certainly be beat by a credit-crunch special remake.
Hidden Art's Jeeves and Wooster lamps, inspired by P.G. Wodehouse's novels, are jolly good. They are also jolly expensive: £450.
