3D model description

This lamp is a miniature version of the famous neon Rotoshere designed in 1961 by Warren Milks in the height of the Mid-Century Modern period and was originally modeled after a Christmas ornament even though most people at the time thought that it was the Sputnik! There were 240 made, but only 20 are left in existence....And, now you can print one for your home or office!

This design is truly mezmorizing!
