One day, while organizing the Trol folders on Pinterest, I became aware of just how much I love lamps, judging by the number of references I had saved (which I hadn't realized until that moment). I thought it could be a great topic for the blog.
Initially, my intention was to share photos that caught my attention, but some of them were so intriguing that I felt curious to learn more. You see, when you know the story behind something, it takes on a whole new and more valuable meaning.
