Mickey Mouse Desk Light: Brilliant Industrial Design
I love the clever industrial design of this Mickey Mouse Desk Light which is from Japan. The top light enclosure with the ears is a bit of an obvious concept although what I think makes the design so great is the added touch of making the base of the lamp have the buttons from Mickey’s pants.
Here’s the official description of the lamp which is being carried by National Console Support for a little over $25 and is available for preorder:
“Mickey Mouse is an American cultural icon but he’s popular in Japan as well. Each year, NCS receives numerous Mickey Mouse product offers which range from consumer goods to toys to games. Sega Toys currently holds a license to produce products that bear the likeness and/or imprint of Mickey Mouse and other Disney properties. One upcoming product is the Mickey Mouse Desk Light which measures 12 x 32cm (4.72 x 12.59″) and is powered by two AA batteries.”
