The decorative VP Globe Brass pendant by Verpan, design Verner Panton 1969, features a crystal clear
transparent acrylic outer sphere with five internal reflectors in brass suspended by three steel chains.
The brass-finish reflectors add a golden feel to the lamp while splashes of red and blue add
the finishing touches to the futuristic sculptural design and highlights the unmistakable Panton design DNA.
With the VP Globe, Panton’s ambition was to design a lamp that could catch the eye and unite a room,
regardless of whether it hung alone or in clusters. This makes the pendant an ideal choice in a hallway
or long corridor, or as a sculptural element in a corner.
As proof of its authenticity, you will find Verner Panton's signature in the acrylic of the round shade,
engraved products are a trademark of Verner Panton.

A little-known story behind the inspiration of Verner Panton’s lighting
is the Venice influence.
Panton was known for his desire to explore, travel and experience different places and cultures.
One of his favorite destinations was Venice, Italy, and he paid several visits to the famous ‘city on the water’.
It was in fact during one of these visits, that he fell in love with the slightly rose-coloured light
emitted by the old street lamps in the city.
So much so that he wanted his future lighting designs to simulate that unique experience.
The VP Globe is perhaps the most successful execution of this early
inspiration,
as its special layered design paired with the acrylic globe emits a warm, soft and ambient mood-setting light,
a signature of Panton.
In addition to the VP Globe pendant lamp from Verpan, you can also find various others designs by Verner Panton
from the also Danish design brands Louis Poulsen and Montana.
