We’ve seen furniture in the shape of letters , but never lamps that look like punctuation marks ! Tabisso , who also make an alphabet of chairs , has created over 20 punctuation marks in lamp form to accent your room with just the right statement.

The sections are connected via an inventive pivot and bolt system, allowing the vertical movement of one section to be picked up by others down the line.
