“COLLECTION P” TABLE
Another ”new” heavy and rare table arrived yesterday…This time a 40 years old ”floating” marble table ”P4635” from the ”Collection P”.The table measures 46 cm in diameter and the total height is 35 cm so it’s quite small but in the same time easy to place.Manufacturer: Artline Wohndecor in Germany 1981.
PRE-VERSION ILUMESA
Wohoo! I was contacted by a nice man who said he most likely had a red Ilumesa light table from the ”Visiona 2” exhibition 1970.He bought it from a german dealer 15 years ago who claimed he got it from a person that took it right out from the exhibition. It’s not easy to know […]
SIXS
The design ”SEXS” (six in danish) from the Universa collection was one of the few textile designs Verner did that was not for Unika Vaev or Mira-X. The Universa collection was printed by ”Vereinigte Werkstätten für Kunst im handwerk” in Munchen 1963.I have this design in turquoise/white tones and blue/red tones since earlier but no […]
QUICK FIRST PICTURE
A quick first picture of the latest addition to the collection.I’ve had several Ilumesa tables through the years but this one breaks it all… I will tell you more soon!
ANATOMIE LIPS IN ORANGE
Never expected to see this Anatomic series ”Mouth” / ”Lips” textile in orange! Usually when you see these rare printed textiles with this pattern, they are red. It’s actually also the first time I see this textile design with a paper tag from the original manufacturer Poul Boheim too. It comes from a person who […]
BLUE
Hmm, what’s wrong with this picture?
1961
The ”black issue” of the Mobila magazine from august 1961 shows almost the whole range of Verner Panton’s early design from Plus Linje and Unika Væv. Most of the design you see there were prototypes when they took those pictures. For example the ultra cool ”Trumpet Chair” – T6.One example of that chair is now […]
RING LAMP CLEANING
Some careful plastic cleaning in progress…The latest Ring Lamp shades in blue and violet really needs some cleaning but afraid of damaging them so I do this really slow.I miss at least four back panels (the metal plate with bulbholder) to get these more complete. Anyone that has any? Or maybe chrashed Ring Lamps? Please […]
RING LAMP TEST
Just had to make a quick test with the old Ring Lamp shades to see how they turn out when lit up. Now I just put them quickly on some other prototype back panels with round discs so they might not look like this when used with an ”ordinary” square back panel. They still need […]
BLUE AND VIOLET RING LAMPS
Two relics from 666 years before Christ have arrived at Pantonworld. More info and more pictures coming soon…
PEACOCK CHAIR
Woop! At last some matching cushions for the Peacock Chair from 1960.Now this relaxing room with hues of turquoise, blue and purple feels like a place even worthy the designer himself. (Thinking that Verner Panton’s favourite colour was blue).Another great job from @ptv.se (who made the foam work) and @goteborgssyfabrik (who made the fabric work). […]
