The Lichenfan light shade is pictured 3D printed in Shapeways 'sandstone' material, a very rigid, hard material that feels like sandstone. It is pictured here as a lamp shade.
This is Part A (the main part) and Part B of the lamp can be separately purchased 3D printed from Shapeways.
The lamp base, electricals and light fittings are not included. The lamp base pictured is 'Hemma' from IKEA. Alternatively just use the lamp shade with an L.E.D candle (battery powered 'candle'). See photographs of the light shade with an L.E.D candle.
Care instructions:The material is brittle if dropped on hard surfaces, so handle it as you would a precious ceramic object. SAFETY NOTE: Not suitable for use with real candles.
An organic-looking, sculptural fractal light shade, to add fascinating illumination to your room. This sculptural form is constructed using 3D printing. This technology can achieve intricate details and complex undercuts that could not be created using traditional manufacturing processes.

To build a suspended lamp light bulb and socket has to be inserted trough a hole. Adapter ring for E27 bulb socket serves as fitting.
To build a table lamp take use of Starfish lamp stand with adapter ring.
This video shows how to assembly the light source.
The seed lamp plays with reaction-diffusion at different scales to produce an organic effect. A simple sphere grows into a complex sculpted surface by layering reaction patterns at a micro and macro scale. The larger scale pattern creates the overall topography of the lamp while the smaller scale modulates the surface thickness to reveal a cellular texture when lit.
For this lamp, the patterns at both scales are cellular, however the surface is punctured only according to the disposition of the smaller scale. We were inspired by microscopic images of seeds where both the overall shape of the seed and the cells of which it is composed are visible.
Light Fixture
The lamp comes with an eco-friendly 3-watt LED light fixture with three bright Cree LED's that will last for 6 years of continuous use. It is UL-listed and plugs into the wall. The light fixture can be purchased separately from us, email us at hello@n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com
Material translucency test.
(example is WSF)
A cap for short 5 mm, high output leds.
Other shapes available on request (cubes, spheres, pyramids, you name it)
As startup-costs are half the price on this one, bulk is recommended, please contact me with the shape and amount required.

Directions for assembly:
When you look at the housing where the coin battery slips in, you will notice that there are three supports that define this space. Two look the same, and one looks a little different. Let's call the one that looks different the "back support".
Get yourself an a standard 5mm LED. Any colour is good - your choice. For the brightest, I would recommend a super bright white or an ultra bright white. But for fun, know that blue and green LED's look very nice with the moon shade if you have bought it also :) Notice that one of the wires coming from the LED is longer. This is the "positive" wire.
Insert the wires of the LED down through the top hole in the candelabra, and wrap the "positive" wire around the "back support" taking care that it is placed so that it will only touch the battery at this place and no other.
Bend the other wire in a such a way that it will touch only the topside of the battery.
Get yourself a 2cm diameter, 3 volt coin battery. The ones I use are described by this code: CR2025. Insert this battery, negative side up, into the LED Candelabra housing.
Your Candelabra should immediately turn on nicely! Note that you can slide the battery slightly away from the back support and this will turn the light out.
If you have purchased the shade, this is very easy to twist on. Simply drop the shade down allowing its slots to slide over the three housing supports. Then twist the shade to secure it fits tightly.
Enjoy!

These tea-light holders are extremely versatile. You can use them alone, but there something even more exciting you can do:
You can add a customizable paper lantern "hood"! Use any kind of paper you like. There is lots of patterned paper on the market. Whystler will also be publishing PDF files that you can download and print yourself, as well as an Inkscape template so you can design and print your own!
This item is a perfect way you can add your own creativity to your surroundings. Imagine a color scheme to match your decor... or your own motivational words. Special magical symbols written to enhance your mood perhaps? It's all up to you and where you draw your inspiration.
You can even paint these with sharpy markers... black .. pink .. gold ... silver ... what else? You decide.
**A Word About Wedding Use*** Several things make these holders suitable for weddings:
-great price for 3, so you can decorate all of your reception tables.
-Verstile design allows you to add personal shades that match your wedding colour scheme, and also theme. For example, if you have a daisy wedding, put daisies on the shade! Put names on the shades and you have an instant romantically lit place holder at the table.
-When things get crazy at the wedding reception, these little beauties in WSF are durable. They bounce.
-Fits nicely into a purse or coat pocket to take home as favours.
WARNING: Use of real candles is not recommended. They may get too hot for the paper or the plastic holder. Instead, use the handy dandy electrical tea-lights available at your dollar store.

Two identical Pieces make one new amazing lampShade.
The two parts of this innovative lighting system interlock to form one lampshade around the cable of an existing hanging light fixture. The locking mechanism was inspired by a Bikini Clip that is as easily opened and closed.
Lending itself well to bespoke customer alterations, Two Piece Shade can comprise personal messages or patterns to make it entirely unique and special. The translucent properties of Shapeway’s WSF make it the ideal material to generate interesting shadows and only reveal the inside when the light is lit. It’s further advantage of adding color opens up the possibility of mix-and-matching these interchangeable parts to your personal taste.
The final size of the overall lampshade is H22cm x W12.4cm x D12.4cm
Please note that you need to order 2 pieces of this design in order to purchase one whole lampshade. These can however be different colours just as you like it.

The decoration of the design was meant to be a candle holder.
To build them as a full decoration, all three parts has to be collected (Black & White Fishes and the holder).
The purpose of separated these statue is to make it easier for material combination so they don't have to be painted anymore.
This lamp "Labyrinth" is made in 2 parts .... underneath where you installed the socket (E14), the bulb is an LED bulb. With little screw you can block the wire and fix the bottom to the lamp.

The snowflake is a 3D version of a snowflake in glyphomosaic.png, a file that comes with Meshlab, credited to "RANDIJROST" (I think).
A wick - I used cotton string about 1/8" thick.
A wick holder - I used a 6-32 stainless T-nut that I got at an Ace Hardware for $.74. Anything will work that is clean metal, about 1/8" diameter inside and 3/16" diameter outside, with a flange.
Fuel - I used olive oil, any vegetable oil will do.
I made an Instructable with more details.
Update: For version1, I corrected a design flaw- the platform inside is now sized to support a 3 cm diameter tea light, and it has been lowered to more fully illuminate the interior.
(for cupped candles)
