Sometimes, it’s better to let pictures speak for themselves. These amazing hand-blown glass lamps are from various designers from the Design Miami show that just took place this week. My favorites include pieces from Delphine Rumo and Julien Renault. They may not tell time, but they’ll remain timeless. Hit the jump to see more shining goodness:

As of this writing, the KAWS 4-foot mascot will be available for sale online at the official store. With the iconic KAWS head and a body resembling that of Steamboat Willy/Mickey Mouse, it’s bound to sell out immediately if you don’t act quick. Can’t score one? There’s always the Bitchcruiser.

If you haven’t noticed, we’re crazy about toasters. Winner of the Macef/Designboom Ceramics for Breakfast Competition 2007, George Watson has crafted a ceramic toaster dubbed “Glide” using slip molded porcelain. Claiming that there has been “little development of the toaster,” has been Watson’s main drive in crafting this atypical toaster. Just shovel the toast into the feeder to have it ...

Any additional speakers would be an extra $100. The speakers are able to go up to 9-feet underwater for up to 30 minutes, just in case you ...

Designer of the double-ended jar, Sherwood Forlee has come up with an artsy concept for a speaker. The “Speak-er” is a speech bubble speaker. Other than that, it really doesn’t have much going for it, aside from fitting in your comic-book themed room. Having two of these coming out of your monitor will make you feel like your monitor has ...

If you’re LED crazy, you won’t find a cooler LED anywhere else. The BlinkM-Smart LED is king over all other LEDs. It’s able to drastically change color and using BlinkM Sequencer, software that fuses a color picker with a drum machine, it can blink and fade in nearly any pattern. Make it flicker like a candle or flash like a ...

The crew over at Gothamist have done a fabulous interview with the creator of the Telectroscope, Paul St George. He speaks on a variety of topics ranging from how the device works to future projects. Seems the budding designer wants to dive into tunnels and unfinished inventions. A must read. Link
