You were saying you wanted something quirky? The Blink Desk Lamp is definitely that. But what makes this adjustable desk lamp truly special is the extent of both its creativity and its versatility. The Blink`s ball-shaped shade can be pointed either up or down. The ball also has a hole through it which allows it to be positioned anywhere on the lamp`s chrome stick and fastened in place at heights of 13 to 18 inches. And if you want to remove the shade completely and imitate the alien tripods fro m War of the Worlds it also functions as a hand-held flashlight. The shade has an on/off toggle switch and its light requires a one-watt LED bulb (included). The Blink is an oddball but it`s also kind of a genius.About Adesso LightingAdesso was estab lished in 1994 based on the belief that there was an under-served niche among consumers who sought high-end contemporary home products at moderate prices.
