The company received 15 if design awards and collaborated with designers including wilhelm wagenfeld. This model 4166/02 was designed by h.w. Egger.
these wall sconces are of rare architectural ambition. Four chrome-finished arms extend horizontally from a concave cylindrical wall bracket, each terminating in a precision-faceted bullet socket. Two arms point upward, two downward, creating a perfectly balanced vertical composition that reads as a pure line drawing when mounted. The concave barrel mount is finished in high-gloss chrome with a strongly reflective surface. Space age minimalism at its most resolved.
