FRITZ HANSEN Caravaggio P1 glossy black
Caravaggio™ designer pendant luminaire - an aesthetically designed light source for ambient and area lighting The Danish designer Cecilie Manz, whose ambition with regard to her work is to create products that are simple and beautiful according to the tradition of Scandinavian style, but also have modern international elements, has created a light source that meets all these criteria with the Caravaggio™ pendant lamp. The Caravaggio™ pendant lamp is wonderfully suitable as an area light source, e.g. to illuminate a dining table or a counter, but also finds its purpose as a main light source in the room. After her education at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and a semester abroad at the University of Art and Design in Helsinki, Cecilie Manz founded her own company. She carries out her work in the traditional way - alone in her studio - drawing her designs on paper and devoting herself to shaping her objects in the basement. Her work reflects Cecilie Manz's own expression: perfecting the Scandinavian tradition of simplicity with a modern, international aspect. Cecilie Manz has been awarded the Berlin Art Prize (2008) and the Bruno Mathsson Prize (2009), among others, for her works. Some of her pieces are in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Design Museum Danmark. The FRITZ HANSEN company was founded in 1885 after the cabinetmaker Fritz Hansen obtained a trading license for Copenhagen in 1872. The company gained a high reputation already in the first 50 years of its existence due to its high-quality products and the cooperation with well-known designers. Premium quality is the hallmark of the company's products, which since 1979 has no longer been family-owned, but is largely owned by Skandinavisk Holding. Since its introduction in the 1930s, high-quality furniture made of plywood has been the trademark of Fritz Hansen. Many renowned architects and designers, such as Arne Jacobsen, Hans Wegner and Verner Panton, worked together with Fritz Hansen.
