If it was glass or shell or something costly, but what is it made of?

There are loads of this style around at the moment. even Dunelm Mill are doing one for a tenner. Or M&S, John Lewis etc. etc.

I know it's incredibly immature of me but "Collage is now available in a new series of douche colours" made me Grin

Sorry, OP- it's got Isawyoucoming written all over it.

Very time you turned on the light you'd hear the echoing laughs of the people that manage to sell one to a total mug at that price.
It's nothing special but we all have different taste. It'd be overpriced an a tenth of the price.

Umm. I think it would be fairly easy to get the effect by layering lampshades if you were so inclined.

It just seems a bit, well, average, for such a high price.

I think it would create a lovely soft light and disagree that it's like those other cut out ones, because of the three layers the light is diffused

Well, I do think it is very beautiful, but I'd have to love it for a long time to justify the cost!

Erm - what's a "douche colour"? Genuinely baffled.

I realise taste is personal but I think it is hideous and looks very cheap as its plastic. I wouldn't pay £50 for it let alone £550.

You'd need two or three of them to make an impression and you would need the right sort of interior decoration to boot.

Douche is a watery colour.

If you like that, have a look at IKEA for about 10% of the price.
