The Crosslight designed by Jan Melis & Ben Oostrum is one of my favorite lighting fixtures. The first time I saw one was in a picture of a bathroom and there was just one singular light and I have had to have one ever since. I have literally been haunting eBay for one of these for a long time, years and when they do but very rarely show up on eBay it feels like everyone wants one too. This time I got lucky, I snagged one for pretty cheap. I don’t really have a place for it to hang so I may just leave it laying around like in pics 1,2,3. I think it looks great as a sculpture, it has a great pop art feel. The fact that it glows is a plus. Most of the following images are form DARK, the manufacturer unless otherwise noted.

I like it on the floor too…better, in fact, than hung.

Mid Century Home, Thanks!

Dana@Mid2Mod, I think the floor is better too, plug it in when I need a pick me up!

Ugh, I am SO envious Tyler! I have been wanting one of these lights since I first saw the ninth photo from the top a couple of years ago, but never knew the name. Until now. Your light looks fantastic on the floor grouped with the books and artwork. Thanks for sharing your find. I’ll be an eBay-watching fool now.

Dana, if you find your way back to this post, I don’t know if you guys would ever have one of these Crosslights in your shop, but if so, its mine! haha I scout your online and Etsy shops regularly, but Mom and I are still planning to visit once things slow up a little. Three estate sales just this past month, whew!

Denise, this was only the second one I have seen on eBay. This seller did not know what they had, they called it something else all together.

I remember when DWR was clearing these out for real cheap. My wife said we didn’t have anymore room in the house. I regret not buying these glowing jacks of light. :/
