FOUR MORE TOPAN SPOTLIGHTS
Today four more Topan spotlights arrived. I liked the first one so much that I bought the whole remaining stock. I will use these to light up enamel and fabric panels.
FABRIC FRAMES
50 framed Panton fabrics and about 30 carpets (behind the matress) are now better arranged in the attic.
LIVING TOWER MOVE

TABLE WIRE LAMP
Also this rare lamp came today. A small table version of the Wire Lamp by J. Lüber.
TOPAN SPOTLIGHT
Two lamps showed up today. First up is this special spotlight version of the Topan lamp from Louis Poulsen. You can adjust the angle of light by a special mounting on top of the lamp. Very cool!

EMALCO

Before 1971 the company was named Emaillerie Corgemont so this has to be from when they changed name […]
EARLY FABRICS
Today two early Verner Panton fabric designs showed up. First we have a “Polette” curtain from Unika Væv 1965. The pattern are inverted when seeing it from behind. The white fabric “En” (means “One”) are made by Vereinigte Werkstätten in München, Germany 1963.
