Movement is intrinsic to all of Bernard 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.

As an admirer of Alexander Calder, Schottlander created the Mantis series of lamps in 1951. His lights, with their eternal play between balance and imbalance, reveal some of the secrets of what we mean by ‘solid’ and ‘empty’ and like his idol’s mobiles they appear to defy the laws of gravity. The essential poetry of the object is an invitation to enter a dream world of the most judiciously balanced elegance.

The Mantis Wall Light is crafted from steel and brass. Shade is aluminium finished in matt black with satin nickel and black arm.

  • Dimensions: Wall mount: Dia.9.5 cm. Wall to shade: 45cm.
  • Available online with switch located on lamp. Also available hard wired upon request.
  • Light source (not included): E14 lamp fitting. Max 11W. 220-240V.

Also available is the Mantis BS3 Table Lamp. For more information please call our showroom on 020 7278 8456 or email [email protected]
