Designed by Bernard Schottlander
As admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951 Schottlander created the Mantis series of lamps. 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 also is unique of its kind. Like an acrobat suspended in mid-air, it is made from aluminium using spinning and chasing techniques that are a part of the metalworker???Ǩ?Ѣs inventory of skills, but to which he has brought his sculptor???Ǩ?Ѣs eye to create a helical movement in which the symmetrical and the asymmetrical are in opposition.

These sculptural lights, characterised by their fluidity, their ethereality, their form and their transparency, are all about the subtle interplay of light and shadow. The reflections, shimmers, patterns and vibrations they create dance off the walls. ?ric de Dorma?l?s creations bring forth images, they leave impressions and they provoke sensations.
