The Vegetable Light is a possible table lamp utilizing a large heavy vegetable as a base. Rather than buying a vegetable for its edible potential, the sculptural form and functional qualities are emphasized and the owner is invited to experiment creatively with different vegetables. Yams, Celeriac and Swedes tend to work best.

The lamp was created as a handmade small studio run of sixteen signed and numbered units for the exhibition Food Marketo. It is available to buy from Design Marketo with variants of switched / un-switched and pink / pearl bulbs.
