The Light Gallery - Handmade lamps from Småland

Craftsmanship of the highest quality combined with innovative shaping, function and design to create trend-setting lamps. The result is modern classics that light up homes, offices and public spaces around the world. Peter Nilsson's custom-designed Kumulus chandelier, at over six meters, can be found at Harrod's in London. Kumulus also lights up the Hotel Lisboa in Macau and Terence Conran has chosen Manhattan for his Great Eastern Hotel.

The Manhattan lamp is shaped like a drinking glass and is inspired by the cocktail of the same name. Its genesis can be attributed to three factors: the 100 drinking glasses exhibition in Milan, the launch of the Philips halogen lamp, and a special order from the Spångbergs restaurant in Växjö.

Since 1997, the Manhattan range has grown to include table lamps, floor lamps, pendants, plafonds and wall lamps in various designs. The latest additions are two pendants in gold finish. The Manhattan lamps adorn exclusive locations such as Terence Conran's hotel, the National Museum in Dublin and The Vision restaurant in Malmö. The glass of the lamps is handmade and mouth-blown in Sweden by skilled glassblowers in Glasriket.

Olle Table lamp is created from two geometric elements: a cylinder and a cone, both in shiny white opal glass. The position of the light source makes the light visible in both the shade and the base. This table lamp is available in two sizes, with the larger version having visible black details.
