Paper Ball Lamp

The 18 leaves are perfectly balanced between two discs and held together by the inherent resistance of the material itself. The intricate patterns created by the print travel give a soft, fabric-like texture while the natural elasticity of the leaves lends flexibility and an air of lightness. I utilized a standard E14 lamp cord set readily available at most stores (similar to this one: https://laad.in/2XjiOAX). You have two options for assembling the leaves: printing the 3-foot design or using conventional 12mm diameter (0.47244 Inches) wooden dowels as depicted in the image.
