Monkeyshine Stand & LED Lamp
The Monkeyshine Stand is a thoughtfully designed display piece inspired by Tacoma’s beloved annual Monkeyshines art hunt, a Lunar New Year tradition where handblown glass orbs are hidden throughout the city for the community to discover and treasure.
Created to securely cradle delicate glass spheres, the stand features a stable, balanced base that keeps your orb safely elevated while showcasing its craftsmanship. Each stand includes the year subtly printed into the design, commemorating when your Monkeyshine was found and transforming the piece into a personalized keepsake. For collectors celebrating 2026 (the Year of the Fire Horse) — the engraved date adds even deeper meaning, marking a bold and energetic chapter in the Lunar calendar.
Paired with a USB-powered LED light, the stand doubles as a soft ambient lamp. The gentle illumination enhances the intricate details within the glass and turns the display into a warm, glowing focal point. Part tribute to local tradition, part functional décor, the Monkeyshine Stand preserves the memory of the hunt while giving your find a permanent place to shine.
