A beacon of warm light + modern style.

The shape of the Michigan Left lamp is inspired by Michigan’s unique intersections, which are known locally as “Michigan Lefts.”  Instead of a standard left turn, we make a right turn, followed by a U-turn - hence the lamp’s U-shaped design.  Whether our interesting intersections improve traffic flow is up for debate, but there is no debate about the Michigan Left lamp - it’s a beacon of warm, inviting light that stands out from the crowd.  The Michigan Left lamp creates a beautifully unique silhouette that adds a modern bent plywood touch to your bedside, next to the couch, on your desk, or anywhere you need some warm, inviting light.

Each lamp is handmade in my Leonard, MI studio.  Its modern, minimal aesthetic is courtesy of the hand-layered bent plywood construction which creates a stronger yet lighter material than solid wood.  I start out with 13 layers of sustainably-harvested wood that I glue, layer, mold, trim, sand, and finish by hand, so each one is impeccably made and completely unique.  Natural cork feet keep the lamp from sliding or rocking + protect your table from scratches.  The matte oil finish creates a rich, natural look that’s durable and is water- and stain-resistant.  It’s applied by hand to ensure complete coverage, optimal thickness and a durable hand-rubbed lustre, so the Michigan Left will keep its gorgeous good looks for years to come.

The standard cord color is black, but select "other" for your cord color and leave me a note if you have another color in mind.

You don’t have to take my word for it.  Here’s what one of my lovely customers had to say about the Michigan Left:

"Gorgeous and well made with excellent attention to detail. No more fishing a cable out from behind my bedside tables .. to find the power switch. The wood layering is top notch, there are also four soft foot pads on the base that stop the lamps from rocking, and even the hole drilled for the pull chain is exactly centered and exquisitely finished.” - Colm

The lamps were simply unique and beautiful, and again the zebra wood - WOW. So I had to have another piece. And it's ALL made in the USA! I hope you become the largest selling bent plywood furniture company in the history of the world!!!

Awesome!

I ordered two Michigan lamps with pull strings, to use as bedside table lamps and they are awesome! Gorgeous and well made with excellent attention to detail. No more fishing a cable out from behind my bedside tables .. to find the power switch. The wood layering is top notch, there are also four soft foot pads on the base that stop the lamps from rocking, and even the hole drilled for the pull chain is exactly centered and exquisitely finished.
