Hi Nithya, I am a bit confused... are they lights or lamp shades?
If its light from PET I would like to know the technology behind it... I mean, how did they manage get light from PETs?
And if they are lamp shades, I loved the design... cool idea

I know that ”light” sounds a bit vague but these are lamp shades. It’s not a new technology but an example of creativity. The bottles are displayed in different styles so that the lamp shades look different. Have a look at the second and third picture, the second one uses bottles with caps and the third one uses different colored bottles without caps. It changes the look, doesn’t it? That’s about it :)
