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 lamp may be rotated by 200 degrees horizontally around the wall fixing. Available in a black satin finish with the inner of the shade finished in white.

His lights, with their eternal play between balance and imbalance, reveal some of the secrets of what we mean by ‘solid’ and ‘empty’.
