The Kumiko lamp is finally finished. It took the longest time to wait for the arrival of the power cable, light and light socket (e14). I like it so much that I will probably make it again for myself, haha.

How big is this? I need something like a fruit or a cat for scale. Btw it looks very nice, love the style

One little square is about 1x1cm. The whole thing measures about 12x12x35cm.

I'm also very confused by the scale. Looks about 8" tall maybe?

I think a cat would be a bad choice, as it looks taptaptapcrashable! But it's a fucking beautiful little table lamp.

Definitely crashable. I have to touch it with silk gloves. The T joints lack glue and are pushed apart by the inserted Kumiko frames, because my measurements were a little off. I'm happy it stands as it does 😁
