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.

Essential aesthetics and pure functionality. The swivelling arc in matte black painted steel allows wide movement, and gives the opportunity to both interact and decorate the space. The cylindrical spot, with optional anti-glare filter, allows the light to be directed as required. The light beam is warm and diffuse.

The sculptural shape is the result of a simple geometric configuration that combines productive and functional intelligence, perfectly capturing the characteristic traits of the design by Vico Magistretti.

Tau, borrows its name and shape from the Greek alphabet. A return to the essentials of language, a timeless dialogue. The object is on the border between a sculpture and an architectural building, it is functional through its light.
