Mantis BS5 Wall Lamp by DCW

An admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951 Bernard Schottlander created the Mantis series. Movement is intrinsic to all of Schottlanders work: an artist, an engineer and in no small measure a handyman, he devised a clever system of counterweights combined with a series of strong, and flexible metal bars.
The shade is also unique of its kind. Like an acrobat suspended in mid-air, it is made from aluminium using spinning and chasing techniques, but to which he has brought his sculptors eye.

The Mantis BS5 Wall Lamp available in satin black with or without a switch on the mount. A more compact Mini version is also now available.

DCWditions is a French producer of lights and furniture. Honest objects, well conceived, well designed, well made.
