I bought something else from the Unika Væv lady in Copenhagen – Eleven lenghts of yellow/orange curtains in wool. The colour is very vibrant. She bought them from Unika Væv over 50 years ago.

UNIKA VAEV FABRICS
When we were in Denmark I found a nice lady who worked at Unika Væv about 50 years ago! I bought these table cloths and napkins from her. The pattern, “Spectrum” is designed by Rolf Middelboe 1950-55. It is the same fabric design that was used in this Unika Væv showroom in Stockholm […]
COOLEST FABRIC
At last! This is a fabric I have been looking for the nearest 10 years. This is a mega rare Anatomie “Hand” fabric from the first production 1968. I earlier missed this fabric to have all the anatomic designs made in both the original version in Dralon fabric and the later re-editions made […]
CIRKUS BUILDING LAMPS
Two pink and two yellow small Pantop lamps from the Circus building in Copenhagen are now in the Pantonworld collection as well. There are still lamps like this hanging in there.

By a coincidence we went into a second hand shop and found a big set of Circus building seats! I bought three sets to have with four others chairs I already have from the Circus buiding. The best thing was that these seats were almost “for free”. I paid 400 DKK for three […]

WHITE LARGE CEILING PLATE
This Typ A Ball Lamp now also have a white ceiling plate. The original ceiling plate for this lamp are chromed and that looks of course much better but I wanted to have a white version to it as well. The white ceiling plate and the small metal sprints comes from J. Lübers private […]
DER SPIEGEL TABLE COVER
Today I got a souvenir from the book shop at Der Spiegel publishing house at their original location. It is a kind of table cover that you should put on a round table to get a similar table as the ones at Der Spiegel kantine. It measures 70 cm in diameter. The previous owner bought […]

These vintage ads for Heart Cone Chairs arrived today. You can see more like this at “Drawings and Posters” under “Collection”.
NEW FABRIC TODAY
This showed up today. The biggest version of the “Circle” fabric in multicolour. Really a nice fabric and this was what I needed to have all the different Mira Spectrum fabrics in the biggest pattern in multicolour as framed fabrics.
CIRCUS BUILDING CHAIR
Another new piece for the Pantonworld collection. Here you can see one of the chairs from the Circus Building in Copenhagen 1980. The upholstery fabric is actually the same as for the older Plus Linje furniture.
