Product Name: SOLO Pendant Light in White with Polished Nickel Globe
Price: $300
Who would like this?: Musicians, art students, designers
Musicians can be harder to shop for than your dad. They have every record, on their iPod and on Vinyl, and you know they can't handle getting one more novelty G-clef mug reading "I'm treble."
And while they're probably well stocked in Post-Its bordered by music notes, their place most likely lacks any musical lighting. A white microphone with a faint glow coming from the top could be the perfect addition to any studio, or any room of someone who dreams of someday ending up in the studio.
At $300 it can make a great group gift, whether that means all the siblings pitch in to get it for the family musician to ensure they don't get three pairs of sheet music socks, or a few friends can chip in.
Even if you don't have someone musically inclined on your gift-list there are other kinds of people who will appreciate having their room lit up with a mic.
