ICFF 2007: Jieldé Lighting & Normann of Copenhagen

(Sorry for the delay. We're actually on a bus right now and the bandwidth is painfully slow. One more post coming.)

Jieldé Luminaries - Channel your inner architect. Straight from 1950's France, comes a classic design equal to - if not greater than - the Luxo or the Anglepoise. We saw these last year, but there was no distributor. Now Notonqueen.com is selling them in many colors and sizes out of Canada. Prices are very good as well. Design your own!

Normann Copenhagen - With a big booth right up front, you couldn't miss Normann's classic designs. With pure Scandi pedigree, they populated their open showcase with all the lovely small stuff you might find at the MoMA store. It was all good.

We were taken by their lamps. Some were familiar, but the small upside down flower shape above was new to us. Below is the awesomely simple dustpan design which makes the Rubbermaid solution look like a Hummer.

Those lamps look like ones in the Conran shop. Look in the March/April blueprint.

i cant seem to find a way to purchase the jielde lamps, or build my own, on the notonqueen site...though, anthropologie (natch) sells the floor lamp and table lamp in ivory...they are lovely, and just curvy and intresting enough not to be sterile, i love them, thanks for showing all the different configurations and colors

I love my Jielde 6 arm lamp, which I bought direct from Notonqueen last year at the ICFF. Conran was carrying some styles in the UK store but featuring it in the catalog despite not making any styles available in the US,... and then it seemed like every catalog and manufacturer had done their own version since then (not to mention every UK shelter mag featured it in some loft layout or other).

It's a great lamp - I use it as a desk lamp, albeit one served from the floor.

You can buy those dustpans (and the Norm 69 lamp) at Abodeon in Cambridge, MA. They don't sell online but you can call (617) 497-0137. That's where I got mine and I use it all the time. While at first it seems dumb to pay more for an elegant dustpan, it actually works quite well and I think it was worth it. . .

I'm a fan of Norman Copenhagen, but my favorite Danish lamp is currently the Caravaggio lamp by Lightyears of Denmark:
