En Fuego

Go to Fuego and get into the lampiance. Yes, Fuego's lighting is so cool they came up with their own word to describe it. You've got to visit the Fuego kiosk and experience the lampiance in person.





















But these photos give you some nice incentive. I'm hooked! Fuego's lampiance creates a soft, candlelight ambiance without the open flame, the melted wax on your tablecloth (sorry, mom!), or the possible lighting of one's furniture on fire thanks to clumsy ex-boyfriends (grrr).

Fuego's lamps are made of paraffin wax but they never melt and are toxin-free. Each lamp is a unique, handmade piece signed by the artist, Sharon Eyal. They can be used with votive candles, but are also equipped with a chandelier socket that uses low wattage bulbs. So the lampiance created by the illuminated wax is not merely a warm, atmospheric addition to your room. No, it's also energy efficient and will last a long, long time. Love the lampiance.
