Usually when I think about X-rays, it conjures up images of sitting on a table in an ill-fitting hospital gown with a weighty lead apron draped over some part of my body. Fortunately, these X-ray lamps require not so much as a visit to the doctor’s office.

Designer Wonsuk Cho created these pendant lamps using actual X-rays of incandescent and compact fluorescent light bulbs.

Alas and alack, there is no information on if or when you’ll ever be able to buy these for your own pad. For now, you’ll have to settle for something a little less elegant. Just slice up that old film of your fractured limb, glue it onto the sides of an Artemide Petronilla ceiling fixture and hang it up.
