The Sprig lamp design is inspired by the fresh growth of plants.  A single Sprig lamp makes a pendant light, while multiple Sprig lamps combined build a floor lamp or a chandelier.

Sprig is made of recycled plastic, and the lighting source is a standard compact fluorescent lamp (CFL).  The CFL is replaced by unscrewing a lamp arm end cap to access the bulb.  For joining two Sprig lamps together, an accessory package provides one threaded sleeve and a clip-on electrical cord, plug, and screw-in outlet.
