The VL Ring Crown Table Ø150 is a refined table lamp designed by the Danish designer Vilhelm Lauritzen for the house Louis Poulsen. True to the aesthetic of 1940s Scandinavian design, this fixture combines a three-layer blown opal glass diffuser with an untreated brass base for a sober and elegant silhouette. Compact and bright, the VL Ring Crown Table lamp easily finds its place on a side table, desk or bedside table, creating a soft and warm atmosphere. The opal glass lampshade diffuses a homogeneous and glare-free light, ideal for subtle supplementary lighting. The brass, left raw, naturally patinates over time, adding character and authenticity to each piece. Elegant without ostentation, this lamp perfectly embodies the alliance between functionality, noble materials and timeless design specific to Louis Poulsen.
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.
