Coppia Table Lamp

USUALLY SHIPS IN2-3 WEEKS

Designed By Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt
Made in Denmark by Gubi

The Coppia Table Lamp is a new sculptural twin-bulb table lamp designed for GUBI by Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt. Featuring two discs of Fonnesberg Schmidts signature plexiglass housed in a curving metal case, the elegantly industrial design represents both a new material and a new designer for GUBI. The fluid yet geometric design is sturdy enough to be used as either a table or floor lamp, moving easily from desktop to bedside, shelf to windowsill as desired. Coppia is available in tempered, brushed stainless steel, its bronze glow contrasting with a choice of three nature-inspired plexiglass colorways: Ivory/Blush, Ivory/Olive, and Ivory/Clover.

Working at the intersection of design, art, and craft, Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt was born in Denmark, but her creative career began in Japan, where she first studied ceramics. She continued her education back at the Danish School of Design and began a successful career as a studio potter. Over the years, her work has been featured in numerous galleries and museum exhibitions and is notably represented in the collections of institutions including Trapholt Museum for Modern Art and Design and Designmuseum Denmark.

From her studio in central Copenhagen, Fonnesberg Schmidt hand-builds unique sculptural lighting and bespoke chandeliers, most often combining plexiglass discs with fixings in metal, usually brass. As is customary in her work, Fonnesberg Schmidt took geometry as her starting point for Coppia, and the harmony inherent in the shape of the circle in particular.
