| Architect Poul Christiansen's classic folded lamps have the same following in Europe as George Nelson's Bubble Lamps have in the U.S., gracing homes, public spaces and royal chambers for nearly a half century. The Le Klint 171B Pendant (1969) is crafted of color-stabilized antistatic plastic sheeting that's hand folded into elaborate multilayered and waved forms. Crisp white light is diffused from the entire form for stylish and efficient lighting. |

| Dramatic in larger spaces, the Fortuny Lamp (1907), which is now available in black, represents the early modernist emphasis on industrial materials, functional style and the spatial role of objects. As compelling as modern sculpture, the lamp dominates space, but also stands up to inspection of every well-engineered detail. This may be the most passionate and powerful piece of lighting ever produced. |

| Produced on the island of Murano using traditional glass forging and blowing techniques, the Murano Glass Chandelier represents the grandeur of 800-year-old craftsmanship. Dramatic in its scale, color and delicate filigree, the design is a reproduction of a 17th-century Venetian-style chandelier, with scrolling leaf and flower motifs. The intricacy and color of the chandelier is a fine counterpoint to the minimalism and material slickness of many modern spaces and provides an exquisite focal point. |
