My Dibs: Lighting

This is the second installment in a series of posts titled, "My Dibs," that feature my current picks from the 1st Dibs online marketplace. This entry includes some standouts in the lighting category that I have recently spotted.  As I do with all items that are for sale that I post about, I will link to the "store front" and not the specific item in order to avoid "broken links" when the item has sold.

one of the italian modernist ones ended up in a dumpster - there was an abandoned house I saw workers kept asking about the fixture, they would not sell it to me without owners permission and finally they told me it went in the dumpster
