Tom Dixon Sculpture-Like "Stacking-Seating-Decorating" Contemporary Jack Lights are modern multi-functional light objects made from plastic that use the process of rotary moulding.  The Jack Light was first launched in 1994 and became somewhat of a design icon. Since then, Jack floor lights were designed and mass produced to prove industrial manufacture was still possible in the UK. Dimensions Height: 52cm x Width: 58cm x Depth: 58cm Cable length: 3.5m Materials & Finishes Produced from polyethylene Jack uses the industrial process of air rotation-moulding. Bulb (included) 1 x E27 5W CFL bulb. IP20. rated. Tom Dixon fell into the design of the Jack Light by accident when he found himself with “time on his hands" while recovering from a motorcycle accident. As an art school drop-out with no technical training, he taught himself how to become a designer-maker in 1983 after discovering welding when trying to repair his motorbike which led to the design of the industrial-like Jack Light.
