Mantis BS5 Wall With Switch

As admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951, Schottlander created the Mantis series of lamps. Movement is intrinsic to the design, devised as a clever system of counterweights, combined with a series of strong and flexible metal bars. The shade, inspired by Calder’s organic shapes, resembles an acrobat suspended in mid-air. This wall lamp adds rhythm to a corridor and pairs nicely with side tables, over a headboar or a desk.
