Mushroom and Toadstool Lamps by Heico
If you’ve gone down a ‘theme’ route and opted for a bit of a fairytale vibe or even a nature theme, you have to consider including one of these retro styled mushroom and toadstool lamps by German company Heico. Oddly, the company created the nodding Dachshund that graced the back of many a car in ‘olden times’ but let’s not dwell on that!
They’re made from durable molded resin which is basically high quality plastic and emit a warm glow in the room. Decidedly cool, super retro, and ultra kitsch, even New York Magazine declared them “The coolest night-lights on the block”. They’ve also caused the Magic Roundabout theme tune to be stuck in my head now….
£29 for the toadstools and £49 for the large mushrooms which also come in red at Little Baby Company

Those are so cool! I need the pink mushroom
‘Need’ being the operative word!
Does Heico not have a website? I can’t find them anywhere online. I’ve seen a very cool goose Heico lamp on your site but can’t find anyone who sells it in the UK.
http://www.thebeanstalkonline.co.uk/ sells them although they don’t sell online but I believe you can give them a call and arrange it
Hi Vanessa,
They sell through a distributor into stores but not from their own site to my knowledge.
The Goose is stocked at The Beanstalk in Winchester (www.thebeanstalkonline.co.uk). The website is not yet up and running but give them a call and they can do the order over the phone. I believe they carry the whole range including the large goose as well as a smaller one (or maybe a duck – forgive my poor memory!). It was in stock when I dropped by last week.
Hope that helps,
Kat xx
Weird twin thing…
