just came back from lightings.com.sg. whilst the pricing is very competitive, they did not carry the artichoke lite which was my primary objective..... oh well, if i cannot procure it locally, there's always the world wide web......

Yo, my dong tu cermony will be on the 29th @ 1315H. Hoping for a smooth reno & i know for sure my place is in the good hands of Dave.

Earlier on i went to Lightcraft and Vlux to look see look see but i cannot find the artichoke pendant light by Poul Henningsen that i so adore. A quick search on the forum revealed a price of $990, but i'm not sure if its for the real mccoy. Any bros/sis can help me out on this?

$990? did you miss out a digit? otherwise, nope, it's not the real mccoy.

the real ph artichoke (made by louis poulsen) is available at space furniture (ask to order if not available and you are really desperate to have it). the lamp is priced at an 'affordable' $10,000 (+- a couple of hundreds).

as per ne0mesis suggestion, if you want a similar replica, go to lightings.com.sg at jalan besar.
