As a big fan of VERNER PANTON´s enamel work I was very happy today, when I got this set of 8 coasters for drinking glasses. They are 8 x 8 cm:s each and have the same GEOMETRI 1 design as his larger wall panels from EMAILLERIE CORGÉMONT.

NEW PICS OF THE SCULPTURE
The PROTOTYPE MIRROR SCULPTURE is now a little more cleaned and here you have some picture of it.
VERNERS VERY FIRST MIRROR SCULPTURE
Here you have some new pictures of the MIRROR SCULPTURE PROTOTYPE. VERNER PANTON made this piece before he started with all the other MIRROR SCULPTURES in 1964-65. The size is about 67 cm long and 33 cm tall but it all depends of wich way you put it. Each “sphere” is about 15 cm […]
VERNER PANTON PROTOTYPE
Here you have the object I have been waiting for a long time get in the collection. This is VERNER PANTON´S first prototype of a MIRROR SCULPTURE. He built this around 1964-65. The shape reminds of the glass wase he designed in 1964 but you can also see some similarity to his architectual design from […]
OLD FURNISHING FABRIC

NEW PIECES TO PANTON WORLD
First up is this transparant “see through” curtain called “SPHERE” for the “GRAFICA 1” series 1974. It is actually the first piece I have ever seen “live” myself. I have only seen them in pictures from the 70:ies. Mira-X sold a lot of these fabrics but since they have no tags, nobody knows what it […]
ONION TABLE LAMP
Here comes some better pictures of the ONION LAMP. VERNER PANTON designed this in 1977. I asked MARIANNE PANTON about it and first she did not even remember they did a table version. After seeing some pictures she was convinced. It was probably made in a very small numbers for the japanese market. I still […]
RARE JAPANESE TABLE LAMP
I am pretty sure you haven´t seen this table version of the original edition ONION LAMP before! Not even Marianne Panton remembered this table edition existed. It is not in any documents from VERNER PANTON as far as I know. I have been looking for Verner Panton´s “ONION LAMP” by YAMAGIWA for many years now. […]
