The big Typ A lamp is now moved so I can continue the painting of the other half of the room. It goes very slow… But the magenta colour is super in this room. I will also use curtains in the same colour when ready.

POLYTHEMA CATALOGUE
I got a nice present from a fellow Panton collector – A Polythema catalogue with Verners design from the 90:ies.
THIRD LAYER OF PAINT
The third layer of magenta paint is now up. Two more layers to go… And then at least five layers of paint in the other part of the room…
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Merry Christmas! I had a quite unexpected gift from my mother. A “Three light”-bulb made for the Panthella lamp wich have three steps for different strenghts of the light. People who uses a standard lamp in their Panthella lamp for the first time always think their lamp is broken. It first works after some […]
TYPE H BALL LAMP
I have waited for this Type H Ball Lamp some years now and the previous owner promised me to get it when he was “ready” with it. Some weeks ago he told me the good news and today it arrived! He bought it cheap from a lady at a fleamarket in Paris about 15 […]
MAGENTA PROJECT
A little “relaxing” christmas project is to change the blue room into a magenta room (and with a more matte finish). I liked the earlier blue but all other colours on this floor are warm so this probably match better. Unfortunatelly, I know this colour tone needs about five layers to cover properly and I […]
BOBINETTE CURTAINS
A nice pair of “Geometri I” curtains in a “see through” fabric came today. These are also called “Bobinette” after a model who promoted them in 1960:ies. Verner Panton designed these for the danish company Unika Vaev in 1960.
THE LAST SEATS
My little assistant Julian helped me with the last Circus building seats today. I have during some weeks with a lot of work removed the wooden panels and saved the Bolivia furnishing fabrics from a lot of seats. My plan is to use these fabrics later since it is the same type as were […]
STARLIGHT AND TONIGHT
Today another 18 cm “Tonight” candle holder arrived. I will try to find one more in 23 cm and also a pair of the smallest “Starlight” candle holders.
BLUE ROOM
Trying a small Geometri I carpet under the Peacock Chair. I hope to find the correct orange/red Bolivia fabric for the chair to make it complete. You can still use it like this but of course two more pillows would be bettter.
ENAMEL KVADRATS
Slowly I am trying to arrange things in order after the renovation. Verners enamel panels are on top of my best liked pieces. Here you have a rare set with kvadrats.
SMALL TABLE LAMPS
Seven Pantop lamps showed up today. The two most interesting pieces was these small table lamp bases. I have several coloured spare shades to go with them. These very lamps actually comes from the sale director at Elteva who produced them in the 80:ies.
