This straight formation of Flowerpot lamps has four lamps in a raw attached from a stainless steel bar. The setup was custom made 1975, for a house north of Stockholm, by the swedish agent for Verner Panton’s design.

ASHTRAY FROM DER SPIEGEL
Some more pictures of the medium sized ashtray in green-grey enamel that arrived yesterday. The ashtray belonged to a co-worker at Der Spiegel in Hamburg. I haven’t seen this color before but know each floor of the publishing house had one main color.
MORE LIGHTS
At last light in all lamps. Next step is to attach the cluster to the ceiling but also to adjust the sofa and the position of the single Flowerpot lamps you see to the right over the sofa.
RARE PANTON ASHTRAY
An enamel ashtray in a special color for Der Spiegel publishing house 1969 showed up today. More pictures will come.
31 FLOWERPOTS
It seems like all the lamps are working without one. Will check more tomorrow.

FLOWERPOTS ADJUSTED
Julian is happy since his “lamp cottage” soon are back. All lamps are adjusted but I will need to buy some more sockets to connect everything together.
FLOWERPOT CLUSTER
31 Flowerpot lamps are now mounted loosely into a formation “B”. I will measure everything carefully to get the correct height between the lamps before the big plate are mounted in the ceiling.
5 GLOBE SPOTS
I was lucky to find 5 more of these Louis Poulsen “Globe Spots” from 1968. They are perfect for lighting up framed fabrics on walls.
CIRCUS PROJECT
Another project is to frame this huge piece of velour fabric from the Circus building in Copenhagen and to hang it on this turquise wall.
