Description

&Tradition's portable Flowerpot VP9 is a cordless version of the iconic Flowerpot table lamp designed by Verner Panton. The joyful Flowerpot lamp was inspired by peace, love and the Flower Power era of the 60s, and it became a true design icon soon after its launch. The silhouette of the lamp is created by two hemispheres, which let the light reflect down in a soft, pleasant manner.

The portable VP9 is slightly smaller than the original table lamp, making it easy to carry from one place to another. You can charge the VP9 lamp using a magnetic USB cable or a separately sold charging base. One charge provides light for about 10 hours at the highest setting. The cordless luminaire is easy to move from one place to another as needed – it is ideal for a cottage, garden dinner or other non-electric space. The three-step dimmer ensures that the light intensity is always the right one, whether you use the Flowerpot VP9 luminaire indoors or outdoors.

Verner Panton

Verner Panton (1926-1998) is considered one of Denmark’s most influential furniture and interior designers in the 20th century. Panton’s works are represented in numerous museums worldwide, and he was awarded several prestigious design awards. He was a unique designer with a special sense of colour, shape, light function and space.

Panton was trained as an architectural engineer in Odense and after that he studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Art in Copenhagen, graduating in 1951. During his career, he created innovative and futuristic designs in a variety of materials, especially plastics, often using very vibrant colours. Panton also introduced a series of modern lamps with personalities unlike any of his Scandinavian contemporaries. The Panthella lamp, created in 1971, is one of the most famous luminaires by Panton.

Panton was also famous for his inspirational and colourful personality. “The main purpose of my work is to provoke people into using their imagination. Most people spend their lives living in dreary, grey-beige conformity, mortally afraid of using colours. By experimenting with lighting, colours, textiles and furniture and utilizing the latest technologies, I try to show new ways, to encourage people to use their imagination and make their surroundings more exciting,” Panton commented on his designs.
