FRITZ HANSEN Night Owl table lamp, ash base

Night Owl™ table lamp with ash wood base - Design: Nicholai Wiig Hansen The Night Owl™ table lamp has a conical ash wood base with a rotating aluminium lampshade that allows you to adjust the direction of the light to suit your personal lighting needs. Its aesthetic design looks very decorative anywhere, whether on a bedside table, a side table in the living room or on a chest of drawers. Night Owl™ emits its light in an indirect way and bathes the surroundings in a soft lighting mood that contributes significantly to a cosy ambience. Nicholai Wiig Hansen, who founded his own design studio in 1990 - at the age of 26 - and has since created a number of well-known designs, such as the "Jules" desk chair, the "PS" cabinet, the "Sintra" table and the "Geo" thermos flask, created this simple yet extravagant light dispenser. In his designs, he attaches great importance to a well thought-out proportion and colour concept and only adds details if they have a practical or aesthetic benefit. The Danish company FRITZ HANSEN produces the Night Owl™ table lamp. The company's history began in 1872 with the cabinetmaker Fritz Hansen from Nakskov, who obtained a trading licence for Copenhagen and subsequently set up his own business, where he and later his son Christian produced high-quality furniture and other furnishings, which earned them a high reputation and important commissions such as furnishing the university library and the town hall in Copenhagen. Through collaboration with well-known designers such as Bruno Mite, Jo Hammerborg, Arne Jacobsen, Hans J. Wegner and Grethe Mayer, the company has achieved a high reputation beyond the borders of Denmark in its almost 150-year history. FRITZ HANSEN has been 75% owned by Skandinavisk Holding since 1979.
