At first glance, the lamp looks like a brass capsule. But pop its top, and out slides a glowing LED cylinder. Like a plane’s fuselage, the lamp’s metal shell protects its contents. To turn it off, just push it back in. It’s a delightfully simple conceit that adds a little surprise to the simple act of flipping on a lamp.
