Mantis BS1 Floor Lamp by DCW

Mantis BS1 Floor Lamp

DCW éditions

Designed by Bernard Schottlander. 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. The later BS1 B model features a round, flat base which differentiates it from this original tripod base.

DCWéditions is a French producer of lights and furniture. Honest objects, well conceived, well designed, well made.
