If your idea of a hilariously good time is scarring your children for life, might I recommend the Fall of the Damned lamp for their bedroom. It's a $45,000 chandelier inspired by Dante's Inferno, the epic poem about the decent into hell. Lovely!

Here's what designer Luc Merx has to say about the evil creation: "The Fall of the Damned appears to be an organic and intricately textured ornament. Upon closer inspection it is revealed as a mass of naked bodies, reminiscent of Dante and Rubens, fused together in agonizing beauty." It's the perfect light to read bedtime stories by, in other words. — Adam Frucci
