it's a booby bird

it's a bird

Some months ago we were at Anthropologie in London and this Booby bird looked me straight in the eyes. Couldn't resist it's flirting and the bright colors of the lampshade!
Not exactly convenient, to bring a lampshade in your hand luggage, so we decided to ship this strange bird to the Netherlands.

Once at home, I found out it's a Booby bird from the Galapagos Islands. The lamp has six different birds around, this is our favorite but sometimes we turn another bird to the front. The lampshade is designed by Ashley Longshore and is called Archipelago Lampshade.
