The honest construction of simple materials in the Billy lamp proves that utilitarian design can both reflect industrial heritage and accent a domestic environment. The lamp comprises four matt-lacquered pieces that support a hardwood stem, which is unstained but finished with a clear protective coating.///DescriptionIlse Crawford Edition was re-created by London-based designer Ilse Crawford for Kalmar Werkstätten. Crawford adds sophistication, humility and warmth to the utilitarian design of the floor lamp. In the variation, a rosewood stem standing on satin-brass feet replaces the unstained oak and coloured lacquer of the original. The lampshade features a duotone finish, matte black exterior with satin brass interior, creating an ambient feel. Kalmar Werkstätten believes that producing great design demands flawless execution. The company is founded on Austria’s rich craftsmanship tradition and, in collaboration with today’s noteworthy designers, they propel it into the future. Imagination, skill and quality infuse every step of Kalmars work.
