When they say "candy" about something, they want to emphasize the good appearance and even the kawaiiness of this object or person. But the Candelier lamp can be called "candy" without any metaphors. After all, it is made just from hundreds of gummy candies.
By the early 1980s, Gummy Bears had become so popular in the United States that an entire cartoon series of the same name was filmed there. Many of us remember him, he was broadcast on Channel One in the early 90s.
And although the animated series has not been released for almost twenty years, it still remains very popular all over the world, just like the gummy, after which it is named. This marmalade has become an integral part of the lives of hundreds of millions of people around the planet, has become a part of pop culture and a subject of pop art. As a pop art based on "Gummy Bears", you can bring a chandelier made of 5000 (five thousand !!!) gummies of the same name. It was made by American designer Kevin Champeny. The diameter of this lamp is a full 31 inches (about 80 centimeters) and the power of the light bulb is 75 watts.
It took Kevin Champaigne about two months to create ten copies of this unusual lamp. Nine of them were immediately sold to fans of the Gummy Bears for a decent amount. Kevin decided to keep one for himself. He's also a fan of these funny jumping animals.
