A MONA 25. Upgraded first edition made by Lysheme. It has a story of its own — a truly remarkable one. The lamp was discovered early one morning in a 1970s apartment. It once belonged to Estonian actress Laura, serving as a pendant lamp in a small room where she seemingly prepared for her performances, surrounded by a mountain of captivating books.
This lamp has seen much — not only the heavy moments but also the light.
It softly lit the late nights when Laura would rehearse lines in front of an old mirror, wearing her favorite wool robe. It witnessed silent tears after rejections, the quiet joy of letters received, the sparkle in her eyes when she nailed a monologue, and the quiet clinking of tea cups shared with fellow artists.
When electricity flickered during the winters, it stood steady, humming faintly, like a loyal stagehand behind the curtain. Now, restored and upgraded, it still holds that quiet energy — a whisper of the theatre, of passion and persistence. A lamp not only of light, but of memory.
