Economy have you seeing red?

Contemporary versions of capiz-shell lighting fixtures -- originally popularized by designer Verner Panton’s 1964 Fun Lamp series -- may be a dime a dozen these days, but how often do you see a red one? This 31-inch-tall chandelier with a canopy of wire-framed butterflies has been reduced to $900 from $1,500. It’s part of a sale at the Santa Monica store Rumba, which has 10% to 40% reductions on designer pieces and vintage home decor through March. 1740 Ocean Park Blvd., Space C; (310) 392-3103; www.rumbastyle.com. Rumba’s nearby warehouse has more merchandise up to 50% off; call for an appointment.
