Kmart shoppers go wild for $35 dupe of $1900 vintage lamp

Kmart has done it again with their dupe of an expensive designer lamp.

Glass mushroom lamps are huge at the moment with a lot of homeware stores bringing out a version, but the original Italian Murano glass lamp from the 1970s by designer Gambaro e Poggi can retail upwards from $1900 depending on the shape and colour.

Now trusty discount department store Kmart has released its own version of the lamp for just $35 and it has already sold out.

The lamps have been a huge favourite with numerous homeware and shopping influencers featuring it on their Insta and TikTok pages.

"The infamous Kmart light and it lives up to the hype," Shani Dayna wrote on her TikTok video, admitting she picked up the last one in her local store.
