Sure, it's not as nice as the Fortuny Lamp, but it's a heck of a lot more affordable.

This lamp radiates light, enhancing the design in any room of your home. There’s nothing traditional about the Alcatraz Floor Lamp, so it will feel right at home in the most modern settings. This truly unique floor lamp is versatile in its ability to be used in almost any room. The fabric shade is available in your choice of Black or Grey.

It drives me bonkers when there are almost exact same products at different retailers with different prices and names; is the Bowling Pin Light from UO a Knock-off (um, literally)? Does anybody know?

STRIKE! You'll be bowled over by the Bowling Pin Light, a fun sculpted lamp that turns off when you knock it over (gently). You might just want to get 12! Imported. Wipe clean. 4.75"w, 15.5"h, 4.75"d

The iconic bowling pin has a story to tell. In it’s standing state, it tells us that it is waiting to be knocked over. When the lamp is on its side, the light is off. When the pin stands up tall, it glows. 15" tall

This looks like a pretty reasonable price for a lamp that does tricks.

"This light transforms easily from a table to a floor lamp and back again. Just unleash the aluminum base and reposition on to any height. This light will give any room a magical touch, seemingly ignoring the laws of gravity."

Lampshade in polypropylene, polished cast aluminum base, and translucent lampholder, plug, switch and cable.

As you can see from the pictures above, one of these lamps can be used outdoors while the other is most certainly indoor only. They're both very simple globe designs upgraded into fantastic lighting choices simply by adding color filters and metal accents.

The faceted surface of these lights are pretty eye catching. I'd say they look a tad more expensive than they are as well.

Both 26" height and 35" height lamps have a 6" square base

I'm really liking this faceted lamp, especially because it can function as table or floor lighting- take your pick.

"An angular plastic encased light, the Asteroid is a unique floor, or table light, designed with 24 facets -- each with its own unique geometry. The lamp can be placed on several of the facets, to display as an individual, unique piece, as you like."

Materials: Matte white plastic.

Approx 12" x 11.5" round

Whoa. This is a stupendous (albeit expensive) floor lamp.

"Naughty, as in pine, makes each lamp an individual work of art. Sundayland starts out with the highest quality of California grown knotty pine available, hand turning the base and stem, naturally bringing out the character and sheen of the wood. For the shade, pine is taken to a whole new level, near transparent, then backed with an invisible polyurethane. Light glows through the grain of the wood, knots and all, illuminating any environment."

Dimensions: 5'9" Height

This looks like a good choice for adding just the right amount of ambient light to a room.

'Translated as "bowl" in Japanese, the Wan delicately holds its light in a beautifully curved shell. Encased in its walls are sand-like iron particles, allowing you to direct the angle of light by simply shifting the weight of the bowl. More lovely than its shape however is its glow, as its thick rim softens the contours of the light to a subtle, diffused hue.'

Materials: Polycarbonate, Aluminum
Available in silver or white with a choice of flood or narrow light distribution.
13" dia. x 8"H

This collection of Honey Lamps is on sale (almost half off).

'This is a system of light elements built around diffused light, designed on a modular transparent structure, of theoretically unlimited extension, like "Brancusi's Endless" column. The texture of the triangular components, in a honey comb structure and micro-prismatic, directs the distribution of the light flow through the interior of the structure. The system is composed of three basic components, assembled together in a clip-on process (the elements are a triangle as diffuser, a square as frame and a crown as the cover) as well as the rod iron legs for the base. The assembly operations, which are extremely simple and require no additional tools, are left to the user. By using the components available in the system, it is possible within the required dimensions, to choose from several lamp alternatives.'
