The project team has begun turning their prototype into the final product. Their ability to ship the products may be affected by product development or financial challenges.
The magical mirror that seamlessly transforms into a table lamp.
Introduction
How cool isn’t it to be able to control the visibility behind a surface. I think so and therefore I created the Spegla Mirror Lamp. How does it work though? You simply dim up the light with the cord control wheel and a seamless overtone between the Mirror and the lamp will occur. Spegla Mirror Lamp is a follow up product from Spegla Candle Holder (can be seen and be purchased at www.jlmform.com.)
During Stockholm Design Week and Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair designer Jochen Lavéno Mangelsdorff launched Spegla Mirror Lamp on Kickstarter and also exhibited the product at the fair. The campaign became successful and we are now taking the next stepp over to Indigogo InDemand.

Background
With a background as an Industrial Designer followed by art studies, a creative curiosity emerged to work with three-dimensional form in interior object and light. After creating candle holders that investigating the flow of light with materials in glass, porcelain and metal, the time was ready for taking the next step and expanding the design philosophy into electric light.
How Spegla Mirror Lamp works
The two-sided Spegla Mirror Lamp is based on a specific mirror glass that is not completely opaque. The result is an interior object that acts as a mirror when the lamp behind the circular glass sheet isn’t lit. While turning the light up, the glass sheet transmits the light through the glass, while the mirror effect gets less visible. While turning the light up the matt edge of the mirror begins to glow and enhances the round shape and gently gives the lamp a golden frame.
Functional wise the light is stronger towards the backside and softer towards the front. This makes it more comfortable for the eyes and gives a harmonic and cosy feeling.

Design & Construction
Spegla Mirror lamp is designed manufactured and assembled in Sweden.
The base is a one solid piece of recycled aluminium made with CNC-milling technique
The mirror glass is located exactly in the middle. This leads to a smooth and seamless overtone from mirror effect to light without visually changing the shape of the base.
The glass sheet is made with water-cut technique
The Semi opaque glass is the highest quality on the market. The name of the glass is Mirastar®. Produced by Saint-Gobain and water cut by Glasteknik i Emmaboda, the best glass workshop in the hart of the Swedish glass industry. The edge is matt grinded to brake the light. This is how we achieve the glowing halo effect that is framing the mirror.
Choose between the four version. Colour: Black or silver Finish: Matt or Shiny
Different Colour & Finish
Spegla Mirror Lamp comes in four different verietys of the lamp fixture. Matt Anodized, Shiny Anodised, Matt Black Anodized, Shiny Black Anodized. The Black ones come together with black textile cord, black dimmer and plug/socket. The natural anodized comes together with silver/grey textile cable, white dimmer and white plug/socket.
The textile cord will be either twinned/round or oval depending on the compatibility with the dimmer and plug/socket.
The lamp socket is a E14 with a dimmable E14 light bulb without text on the frosted light area. The producer is a Swedish company named Startrading. This lightbulb has been tested together with the dimmer by the Swedish dimmer producer Vadsbo and have the best compatibility for a smooth non flickering dimming.

Regional Solution
Different solutions for different Regionals. This lamp will have solution for most countrys in the world. The difference will be the plug/socket and the dimmer.
Below you will see the different type of plug solution we support. We will provide plug solutions Type A (red), Type C, (dark blue) Type I (yellow) & Type G (green). For more information about the plug solution click on picture below.
some countries with a different type of wall socket need to buy a converter. You will find a converter in your nearby hardware store, or online at your favorite eCommerce store, see examples in pictures below. Choosing the different power plug will be made in the survey after the campaign is finished.

Rewards & Timeline
Risks & Challenges
Our manufacturing partners are ready to go and we have already produced a small batch with all different colours and finishes. We will work closely with our partners to ensure the highest quality and to ensure that all stages of the manufacturing and fulfillment goes smoothly. The smaller series has passed the quality assurance.
The glass sheet is a part of a previous product I have released and still selling. It is water cut in the hart of the Swedish glass Industry in Småland. The factory Always deliver with the highest quality.
Components are set together with a Swedish textile cord producer.
Some of the parts are already produced and some will start in the upcoming weeks.
Long-lasting design
The CNC-milled aluminum is solid and robust and makes it basically impossible to break. The semi opaque glass is hardened and makes it hard to brake. The lamp components are standardized and of high quality such as the dimmer, cord, E14 lamp holder and socket. They are all easy to replace and can be baught in the hardware store. This makes the products lifesycle longer.
Reusability and recyclability
It is very easy to assemble and sort the different components. The aluminium base is made of recyclable aluminium and is hundred procent recyclable. The same goes to the mirror that sorts as glass. The lamp components are standardized such as the dimmer, cord, E14 lamp holder and socket. If you don't want to use the lamp anymore you can reuse the high quality electrical components.
