The Hypolux Syringe Chandelier

The Hypolux Chandelier is made up of commercial syringes, plexiglass plates and ballchain suspension. It comes from Bughouse, the same folks who brought us cameras made of concrete. This bleeding edge fixture measures approximately 16″D x 24″H and retails for $500 here. I can’t help thinking that a syringe chandelier would make a really considerate Valentines gift for that friend who needs a boost kicking her needle-phobia.

BONUS! If you’re the type who can’t handle commercial-grade syringes, now you can make one out of LEGO. Sean Michael Ragan explains: “I can assure you there is absolutely no reason you need a syringe made out of LEGO. But you want one, don’t you? So did I. And that’s why I designed it.” Full details on how to make your own can be found here. Ragan also sometimes sells them on etsy.
