FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE (it cost us $135 USD) [ : - ) = $ = (o-: ] The Idea of this wall Design comes from Bauhaus 1919-1923 (Walter Gropius Design movement)The Bauhaus was founded by architect Walter Gropius in Weimar. It was grounded in the idea of creating a Gesamtkunstwerk ("comprehensive artwork") in which all the arts would eventually be brought together. The Bauhaus style later became one of the most influential currents in modern design, modernist architecture, and architectural education. The Bauhaus movement had a profound influence on subsequent developments in art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and typography. Staff at the Bauhaus included prominent artists such as Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, and László Moholy-Nagy at various points.The Original design of Bauhaus made in 1919 (Blue) and 1923 (red) are 104 years old and 100 years old. respectible....As the Disney Mickey Mouse is now also 100 years old the Mickey Patent is Kapput. All can copy Mickey if they wish so. In the 1970s a Danish Designer Bent Karlby COPIED the bauhaus design to put his own colors and made a lamp of 27 centimeters diameter that he called the peacock. Just 47-50 years after bauhaus published their design was already copied by Bent Karlby. As seen it is debunked the false assertion that this design belongs to karlby or LYFA... In Any Way. It belonged to Walter Gropius and his TEAM of designers from 1919 to 2019. After that...patents kaputt. Please note that the Bauhaus posters are not included in the sale.

(^_^ ) (^_^)(^_^) ( ^_^) (^_^)The Sculpture has a seal on the back of the rings which reads: "Made in Denmark". Our city of AARHUS, Denmark has invested 20 million Danish Crownswinning at a public auction the "ETERNAL RING" Sculpture in the beach (see 1 Picture) The construction may have costed only 1.000.000 Danish Crowns (real cost) but the Commune was desperateto own it as they have already another "RINGS" Sculpture in the city: the Eternal Ring in Colors on top of the Museum of Modern Art (Museum of Scandinavian Design or AROS Museum) designed by renowned artist Olafur Eliasson (See 1 picture with Sofia) <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< Pop Art,center of attention, piece of conversation,irreverent, unorthodox sculpture. ...Allways a favourite ! The idea of this design probably isolder than the Bauhaus designs of the 1920s, sincethe Phoenicians ( expert shipbuilders since 2500 - 300 BC ) used the "eye"simbol in every sailship (on both sides of the ships bow) they build to guide their enterprise at sea andmake commerce with the famous purple dye of the unique Murex seasnail ( that only grow in their coasts ) and the inmense Cedar trees of Canaan (Now Lebanon ) that they exported to Egypt (the best tree for shipmaking) and rest of the mediterranean. The phoenicians even travelled to England to exchange glass, ceramics and olive oil for tin, the metal they used with copper to produce their much needed bronze.The Eye or the Circle....They all combine in an universal Simbol. <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< ~~ <"}}}>< If you live in a modern box-like home (...most of us do !) the sculpture ocupy very little space on a wall. (^_^ ) (^_^)(^_^) ( ^_^) THE NOTION OF DEMOCRATIC DESIGN (1960s)"The Æsthetic object is there for ALL ......and not just for a Museum ! "--Ingvar Kamprad (^_^)(^_^) (^_^)(^_^) (^_^)(^_^) "You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the world always works in circles, and everything tries to be round....The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles,for theirs is the same religion as ours... Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood,and so it is in everything where power moves."-- Black Elk, Oglala Nation "There is not enough darkness in all the world to put out the light of even a small candle". -Robert Alden "Sometimes at night i light a lamp so as not to see". -Antonio Porchia "One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness consciouns". -Carl Jung "Most people are mirrors reflecting the moods and emotions of the times. Some people are windows, bringing light to bear on the dark corners where troubles fester. The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows". Sydney J. Harris "Ever since we crawled out of the primor dial slime, that's been our unnifying cry, "More Light". Sunlight, torchlight. Candle Light. Neon, incandescent lights that banish the darkness from our caves to iluminate our roads, the inside of our refrigerators. Little tiny flashlights for those books we read under the covers when we are supposed to be asleep. Light is more than watts and footcandles. Light is metaphor. Light is knowledge. Light is life. Light is Light". -Diane Frolov & Andrew Schneider "You can't study the darkness by flooding it with light". -Edward Abbey "The factory that produces the most important product is the home". -Carol Williams "Emergencies have allways been necesary to progress. It was darkness that produced the lamp. It was fog that produced the compass. It was hunger that drove us to exploration". -Victor Hugo "Opinions are to the vast apparatus of social existence what oil is to machines: one does not go up to a turbine and pour machine oil over it; one applies a little to hidden spindles and joints that one has to know". -Walter Benjamin "Many a man has fallen in love with a girl in a light so dim he would not have chosen a suit by it". -Maurice Chevalier "Really Watson, you excel yourself", said Holmes. It may be that you are not yourself luminous, but you are a conductor of light. Some people without possessing genius have a remarcable power of stimulating it". -Conan Doyle Unless otherwise stated all my lamps (Lampe, Lampor, Belysning, Hängelampe Hängeleuchte, Deckenlampe, Pendelleuchte) are genuine antique/vintage 2nd-Hand Danish (Dansk, Dänische, Danoise) and Swedish (Svensk) Design items, originally manufactured in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, not modern copies or retro reproductions. The style ranges from classic 50s (often described as mid-century, Atomic) or Danish Modern, with its innovative combination of natural and modern materials including wood, opaque glass and aluminium, through the early 60s (60er) Space Age inspired use of layered metal and chrome to the later, more outrageous psychedelic, funky style with its use of new plastics and other synthetic materials to produce the familiar range of new and vibrant colours, to the almost universally brown, white and orange coloured cool of the 70s (70er). The most well-known examples come from manufacturers such as Louis Poulsen (Louis Paulsen), Fog Mørup (Fog Morup, Fog Moerup, Fog Mörup), Lyfa, Holmegaard, and Ateljé Lyktan (Atelier Lyktan), but many of the more interesting and unusual come from less well-know manufacturers such as Nordisk Solar Compagni, H.F. Belysning, Markaryd, Voss, AB Ellysett, Dantek, Le Klint, and abo Randers, or from manufacturers outside of Scandinavia such as Thorn Lighting and Merchant Adventurers. Many of the lamps are also produced by famous designers like Poul Henningsen, Arne Jacobsen, Verner Panton, Jørn Utzon (Jürgen Utzon) Piet Hein and Hans Wegner, others by less familiar but equally interesting and sometimes prolific designers such as Jo Hammerborg, (Johannes Hammerborg) Hans Due, Sophus Fransen, Torsten Thorup, Claus Bonderup, Hans Agne Jacobssen, Preben Fabricus, Anders Pehrson, Bent Karlby, Svend Middelboe, Preben Dahl, Jørgen Gammelgård and Hans Bergström. Most of these designers also worked on furniture and architecture so there is a relationship between these lamps and items produced over the same period by Danish furniture designers and manufacturers like Fritz Hansen etc. There is also a clear inter-relationship between these designs and similar lamps and other furniture produced in countries such as England, Finland, Italy, Germany, Holland and the USA. I DO NOT claim any explicit connection to manufacturers like Troughton & Young, Hille, o/y Stockmann Orno, Stilnovo, O-Luce, Arteluce, Artemide, Flos, Kartell, Verre Lumiere, Staff Leuchten, Tomado, Lightolier, Lumitron etc or designers such as Paul Boissevain, Robert Welch, Robin Day, Ernest Race, Alvar Aalto, Finn Juhl, Fini Bolbroe, Yki Nummi, Lisa Johannson-Pape, Jo Colombo, Castiglioni, Fontana Arte, Vico Magistretti, Sergio Asti, Peter Karpf, Eames etc, but there is a clear design-led similarity and anyone interested in these designers may find the items I am selling of interest to compliment other similarly vintage items of furniture, contribute to a retro feel or simply for research.
