Bjørn wiinblad was born in copenhagen, denmark in 1918. Björn wiinblas was very active artistically from a very early age. He created artistic objects all over the world that are unique due to his artistic style. Among other things, he created a large tapestry with a sheherazade motive in the dallas usa world trade center. He worked for many years as a senior designer at the german porcelain manufactory rosenthal, where he designed unique works of art for everyday use. Here you have a rare opportunity to acquire one of his aurora wall lights. They come from a villa in northern germany that was designed and built by an architect in the 1950s. The aurora wall lights are made using an elaborate etching technique. The motif - in this case the world-famous peacock - is raised and the surrounding area has been removed. The lights have a beautiful patina and can be polished as desired. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no

however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
