The trick here is that it works as lighting first and as a joke second. Warm white LEDs at low level in a dim room read simply as pleasant amber lighting — you'd have to look properly to notice that every bulb is a shrimp. Then daylight arrives and the whole thing is absurd again. Very little novelty decor manages that double life; most of it is only ever the joke. Rated for indoor and outdoor use, so it works along a balcony or a fence as well as a shelf. The quiet pick for someone with a well-decorated flat.
