Hanging copper Poul Henningsen PH4/4 1930's original Louis Poulsen Denmark Rare

By Louis Poulsen, Poul Henningsen

Located in Forest, BE

Spectacular copper and brass nickeled suspension lamp made in the 1930s at the famous Louis Poulsen factory. The lamp come in few parts which includes 3 copper shades. Easy to fix install. The lamp remain in excellent condition and is ready to be used as she got a new cable in cotton. You can see lots of patina and traces of time. It becomes really hard to find a good PH lamps these days. _____________________________________________________________ Poul Henningsen est le fils illégitime de l'auteure Agnès Henningsen et de l'écrivain satirique Carl Ewald. Il a passé une enfance heureuse dans une maison moderne qui a été souvent visitée par les intellectuels de la région. Entre 1911 et 1917, Poul Henningsen suit une formation d’architecte sans pourtant en obtenir le diplôme. Durant les années 1920, Poul Henningsen a fait sa percée littéraire. Il a édité la revue Kritisk Revy (1926-1928, "Examen critique») dans laquelle lui et ses collègues méprisent le style ancien et le conservatisme culturel, reliant ainsi les thématiques politiques de l'époque . En même temps, il débute comme écrivain pour une revue sur les bienfaits d'une vie simple, en harmonie avec la nature et une sexualité plus libre . Il était l'homme qui a fait des revues danoises des armes politiques au service de aile gauche sans abandonner son caractère de divertissement (la soi-disant PH-revues 1929-1932). En 1933, il édita son ouvrage le plus célèbre Hvad med Kulturen? ("Qu'en est-il de la culture ?") Une critique polémique, audacieuse et urgente de la vie culturelle danoise avec son snobisme et sa nostalgie du passé, en dépit de tous les efforts de la percée du modernisme. Il a essayé de faire un parallèle entre la pruderie, moralisateurs et penchants fascistes; il a également accusé les sociaux-démocrates de manquer d'une ligne culturelle ferme et conséquente. Ce livre ainsi que ses activités dans son ensemble lui ont donné une réputation de semi-communiste ("compagnon de route"). Dans cette période, il se tenait en fait proche des communistes sans les rejoindre. Il a participé à la propagande anti-fasciste, en essayant toujours de faire des connexions entre la culture et la politique. Parmi ses autres initiatives durant cette période, il y a eu Danmarksfilmen en 1935, (en français : Le Film du Danemark) aussi connu comme Danmarksfilm PH. C'est un film sans prétention et non traditionnel dépeignant la vie contemporaine dans le Danemark d'une manière vivante et un peu irrespectueuse dans lequel les visuels sont saccadés par les rythmes de jazz. Il a été condamné et déchiré par la plupart des critiques, mais il est plus tard réhabilité et est devenu l'un des classiques des films documentaires danois. Il a également écrit des manuscrits de films. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et l'Occupation allemande du Danemark il a gardé un profil bas et s'est enfui vers la Suède en 1943. Après la guerre, il s'est dissocié du communisme qui lui reprochant son humanitarisme de façade dans son attitude lors de l'accord conclu avec les nazis ainsi que pour son scepticisme croissant au sujet de l'Union soviétique et à bien des égards, il a été isolé. Cependant, il a continué à écrire et à débattre, et au cours des années 1960, la nouvelle génération à de nombreux égards a fait de lui une sorte de gourou. Dans ses dernières années, il est devenu un membre de l'Académie danoise et a soutenu le nouveau mouvement des consommateurs. À bien des égards, Poul Henningsen est l'homme qui a achevé les travaux de Georg Brandes...

CB/ASYM Chandelier Etched Brass, Porcelain, Glass Handmade Andrea Claire Studio

By Andrea Claire Studio

Located in Los Angeles, CA

Cloudbreak ASYM V1. et. oak is a mobile fixture with one-of-kind finishes and textures. It is part of our Claire Concepts category, an evolving exploration in lighting that concentrates on the unique and experimental.  Named after Fiji’s famous "Cloudbreak" surf spot, this collection takes cues from the wild colors and shapes of the corals that create these incredible waves. Our cast porcelain clouds mimic the ends of the Stylaster species of coral, which is common in Fiji. The glass diffusers reveal swirls and white-water like patterns and the sea themed etched metal completes the flow of an otherworldly interplay of texture, light, and shadow. The ASYM.V1 has 3 radiating brass arms hanging at a slight tilt, like a soul-surfer riding a wave.  Brass arms, stems and canopies are patterned with a sea inspired etched drawings, hand drawn by Andrea. Etched brass is offered in a Tamarind Patina or in a Natural Waxed finish. Gently balancing on the arms are 1 or 2 coral inspired decorative porcelain shapes called “clouds”. Each cloud is hand glazed multiple times by Andrea to achieve the desired color and texture.  There are 3 hand-blown glass diffusers with Venetian optic twist Grey or Opal & Alabaster. Representing the white water of cresting waves, each piece of glass is finished with three rolls of glinting silver leaf.  The ASYM.V1 has a customizable diameter of between 37 to 43” and it is the largest configuration in the Cloudbreak Luminaire Collection. This fixture is ideal for dining tables, bedrooms, sitting rooms, and dressing areas. It’s unique textures and sea inspired themes will make any space feel special and elevated. Please inquire for custom arrangements. References: coral reef surf breaks, oyster shells, pearls, wave patterns on sand bars, Mary Oliver
