Story
Origin of the VL Ring Crown family
Vilhelm Lauritzen (1894–1984) was an architect and the trail-blazing figurehead of Danish functionalism. Lauritzen designed a lamp in the 1940s for Copenhagen's Danish Broadcasting House, and the VL Ring Crown family derives from it.
Two shades, one arm
This wall lamp pairs two opal glass shades on an untreated brass arm that patinates over time. The glass is glossy white, three-layered and mouth-blown, and the on/off switch is fitted to the wall plate.
