&Tradition | Flower Pot VP2 in Light Blue

&Tradition | Flower Pot VP2 in Light Blue
More than twice the size of the VP1, this pendant is exactly as its name states: big. Like its little sibling, the VP2 is made up of 2 semi-circular facing spheres—the upper sphere twice as large as the lower one. The late, great Verner Panton believed in the possibility of a happier, brighter future, and designed with this in mind. The visionary Dane was the first to do inflatable furniture, cardboard houses and single-form, injection-molded plastic chairs—and all with an optimistic nod. Those chairs appeared in Stanley Kubrick's 1968 masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey; the same year experienced revolutions in the streets of Paris, Rome and the U.S. celebrating change by a generation fueled on Flower Power and a new outlook on the world. Verner marked it all the next year with the FlowerPot collection of table and pendant lights. Spherical, bold and modern, they are as fresh looking now as they were in 1969. No wonder Copenhagen house &Tradition decided to reissue them.
