Unique opportunity to obtain 2 stackable Tom Dixon Jack lamps! These lightsculptures are so impressive and funky! In particular, if you put two of them together. Jack is the original ‘sitting, lighting, stacking thing’, an award-winning multifunctional object that was one of Tom’s first experiments with plastic. Made by air rotational moulding, with a 5 part tool – the plastic polythene pellets are added into the tool and rotated on a large machine at a high temperature giving even wall thickness. Jack is just about simple enough to tool up, but complex enough to look like no other roto-moulding. It looks more like a Japanese concrete sea defence or a model of a molecule with a fat and jolly personality. This is Jack's vision: "I'm sure that most designers can see the magic in mathematics and geometry. There is a satisfying completeness and logic to polyhedra, and the more you learn about them the more universal and complex they become. There is a purity about shapes known as platonic solids, and when you learn to recognize them they start to appear in everything – nature, crystals, seed pods, black magic, Islamic architecture, you name it." Tom Dixon This magical, iconic item adds a playfull element to your interior. The lamp is in a good condition. Usable with a US bulb. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution less
