Mantis BS1 B Floor Lamp by DCW
An admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951 Bernard Schottlander created the Mantis series. Movement is intrinsic to all of Schottlander’s work: an artist, an engineer and in no small measure a handyman, he devised a clever system of counterweights combined with a series of strong, and flexible metal bars.
The shade is also unique of its kind. Like an acrobat suspended in mid-air, it is made from aluminium using spinning and chasing techniques, but to which he has brought his sculptor’s eye.
The BS1 is like a manifesto of the Mantis collection. So elegant, of great finesse, this floor lamp appears weightless. BS1 B features a round, flat base which differentiates it from the original tripod base of the BS1.
DCWéditions is a French producer of lights and furniture. Honest objects, well conceived, well designed, well made.
