Bird lamps and owl lamps
Lighting designs with feathered beauties from the animal kingdomThe colourful world of birds with its impressive diversity is predestined to bring animal lighting ideas to life. Whether exotic parrots, elegant flamingos or native swallows - bird lamps epitomise lightness, freedom and closeness to nature. Table lamps and wall lights are particularly popular, bringing a delicate, poetic accent to the home.
Bird lamps harmonise wonderfully with romantic, playful or natural living styles. They are often combined with floral elements and create an atmosphere of lightness and liveliness.
Owl lamps, on the other hand, symbolise calm, wisdom and magic. An owl table lamp with its soft light makes for cosy reading hours or meditative retreats. Whether wall, table, pendant or garden light, the design facets range from classic and playful to shabby-vintage and modern-minimalist.

Monkey lamps
Playful exotics with styleMonkey lamps are cult objects and design statements at the same time. They combine humour, exoticism and style - perfect for individualists and design lovers. Whether the monkey lamp comes in gold tones or classic black or white is a matter of taste. Hanging monkey lights are popular, where the animal holds on to a piece of furniture, swings with the light's power cable or hangs from the wall. Equally popular: table lamps with seated figures through to imposing floor lamps. The ultimate must-have: the bulb in the monkey's hand - these lights are real eye-catchers for the living room, hallway, home office etc. and are a real talking point.
Tip: Which animal lamps fit best in which room is a matter of taste. However, designer lights from brands such as Kare, Lindby and Seletti are best suited to living room, dining room and hallway, while animal lights with childlike motifs have their place in the children's room. Butterfly lamps and light ideas with teddy bear motifs are particularly popular with the youngest children. For the children's room, please note that special children's lights are best suited for the little ones, as they are definitely designed for children in terms of materials and workmanship and are therefore safe. Other popular children's lamps are night lights with animal motifs - including a dinosaur or unicorn.

Bright safari look
From giraffe lamps to elephant lampsWhen the savannah calls, the right lighting design is a must: Giraffe lamps, elephant lamps and zebra lamps bring the flair of Africa directly into the living room. Giraffes in particular are extremely popular as lamp motifs - for example as giraffe floor lamps or extra-large giraffe lamps. The animals, refined in shades of gold, wear the lampshade elegantly around their necks or the bulb in their mouths. Tip: If you want to know how big the giraffe floor lamp actually is, it's best to check the product details in the shop.
Animal motifs from the jungle and savannah Elephant lamps are a must-have in an individually designed ethnic living room, as they symbolise calm, strength and wisdom. Zebra and rhino lamps, on the other hand, create exotic, high-contrast accents and are sure to make people smile. Particularly popular: animals that proudly wear the lampshade on their head, back or trunk.
So if you want to perfect the jungle look or ethno boho chic in your home, animal lights in metallic shades of gold or very clean black or white are a good choice. In terms of materials, resin, metal or natural fibres are popular and provide authentic textures. Matt paintwork and metallic finishes emphasise the luxurious look.

Light flair with pets
When dogs, cats, horses & co. light up the interiorOur pets are among the most popular motifs when it comes to animal lamps. Dogs are at the top of the popularity scale: from the dachshund lamp to the French bulldog with bulb to the puppy as a cute night light. Variants such as table lamps with a dog motif or children's room lamps with the popular Verbeiner are ideal companions for more cosiness at home or as a creative gift idea.
Another popular design statement are light ideas with cats or mice whose eyes light up or who hold the bulb in their paws. Horse lights are a highlight for children's rooms, either as a complete animal or a stylised head with warm white light.

Light flair with animals from forest and field
From the bear lamp to the glowing squirrelCreative animal lamps with squirrels, mice, bears or deer bring a rustic, natural flair into the home. They look particularly beautiful in Scandinavian or nature-inspired interiors. But as highlights in dopamine decor chic or in a boho ambience, the animals of the local fauna can also contribute to a positive mood and light flair. Depending on the design, the forest dwellers light us up with filament lamps or wear lampshades that spread warm, cosy light.
Tip: If you are unsure which animal lamp suits which ambience, you can remember: animal lamps in bright colours, with ethnic patterns or made of natural materials such as wood are best suited to the boho look or, in measured doses, to the scandi ambience. Lamps with animal motifs can also look appealing in minimalist living environments - for example from Karman or Ingo Maurer. Gold-coloured animal lights are welcome in art deco flair, while animal lights made of ceramic, with fabric shades or filament bulbs can also find a new home in retro and vintage environments.

In the pond, on the pond and around the pond
Fish, ducks, dragonflies & co. in brilliant varietyAnimals from the underwater world, water birds and insects are popular motifs for luminaire designers. And so bright fish, frogs, ducks and even octopuses make it onto our sideboards and become eye-catchers in our interiors.
Particularly popular: the duck lamp. Whether by the pond, in the bathroom or as a maritime decorative object in the living room, it makes for a humorous eye-catcher. Octopus lamps and lamps with jellyfish motifs also play with the idea of light and water. Popular variations: the jellyfish lamp, completely organic, floating, fascinating, or the octopus lamp, which appears to carry a luminous sphere through the room.
Insect lights for cosy flair And everything that buzzes around water also finds its way into our living rooms as a lighting idea: whether butterfly lamp, dragonfly lamp or humorous beetle lamp - insect lamps bring filigree elegance and playful details into the home. Butterfly lamps are extremely popular as wall lamps, table lamps or LED designs. With lampshades featuring punched-out butterfly motifs, they bring magical plays of light and shadow into the interior. Combined with floral or botanical elements, they create a harmonious overall picture.
Lights with dragonfly and butterfly motifs are not just a highlight for adults who appreciate romantic living styles. Butterfly lamps in lovely pastel colours such as pink, lilac or light blue are ideal for children's and girls' rooms, and also for babies' rooms. Dragonfly lamps look delicate and airy, while beetle lamps or fly lamps make humorous design statements. As far as materials and colours are concerned, metal, acrylic or fabric are at the top of the list, often in gold, white or delicate natural and pastel shades.
Please note: Lights with animal motifs are only suitable for the garden, patio or the banks of your pond if they have a sufficient IP code - for protection against water and moisture. Lights that float on water, such as duck or shark, are equipped with a particularly high IP code of IP68.
Tip: The best way to enjoy and save electricity is to fit your animal lights with LED bulbs. For animals that present the bulb in their paw or Maul, filament bulbs are a popular choice. These add that extra touch of cosiness and provide pleasant warm white light. Ideally, they should also be dimmable, as this makes Affenleuchte & Co. cosy everyday companions. As far as socket and base are concerned, you will find the recommended bulb in the shop - for example for the monkey lamp. The designers usually use E27 bulbs.

Decoration with animal motifs
From the gorilla to the rhinocerosDecorative objects bring a cheerful touch to the interior - especially when they come in the form of cute animal motifs! If they also have an additional benefit, we are particularly happy to invite them home: From a pair of chimpanzees as bookends to a lizard as a jewellery box guard to a parrot that makes a bowl of nibbles even more inviting, the choice is huge. But animal decorations are also welcome in our homes as simple figurines that simply look adorable!
