The MANTIS Lamp by Böttcher+Henssler
German designers Moritz Böttcher and Sören Henssler have created the MANTIS lamp.

.
Description from the designers:
MANTIS are reduced to the main functions of floor and desk lamps with a emotional nature of an object. A 300mm long energy-saving power LED Strip is integrated in the wood profile and provides a neutral white light. An aluminium tube is inserted through the wooden construction so the lights can rotate continuously and adjust in height. The result is a delicate balance of lightness, purist design and playful emotion. The MANTIS lights are designed in two versions: black stained ash and maple white pigmented. Each with lacquered pipe and textile cords.

It looks like lamps that are already in the market today…maybe very slightly different.
And it looks more like a T-Rex or a kiwi than a mantis
