The VL Ring Floor Ø190 is an iconic floor lamp designed by Vilhelm Lauritzen for Louis Poulsen. This elegant model combines a blown opal glass lampshade with an untreated brass structure, for a timeless and warm aesthetic. Representative of the Scandinavian design of the 1940s, the VL Ring Floor lamp diffuses a soft and homogeneous light, ideal for creating a cozy atmosphere in a living room, an office or a bedroom. Its minimalist design highlights noble materials, while bringing a touch of functional elegance to any type of interior. The triple-layer opal glass ensures light diffusion without glare, while the raw brass develops a natural patina over time, making each piece unique.
Danish brand Louis Poulsen was founded in 1874, originating from traditional Scandinavian design where form follows function. Louis Poulsen became the owner of the company in 1906 after the death of his uncle, Ludvig R. Poulsen. Louis Poulsen’s approach to architectural development began when he collaborated with one of the world’s leading lighting designers, Poul Henningsen. In 1924, the designer began collaborating with Louis Poulsen lighting; their objective was to take part in the "International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts". In 1925 the collaboration proved successful and the Poul Henningsen lamps won the gold medal. Following this victory, the two men marketed their products in France, England and Denmark.
