The DCW Editions Mantis Sconce Wall Lamp with Switch BS5BLSW embodies the poetic balance and sculptural elegance that define Bernard Schottlander’s celebrated Mantis collection. Designed with a refined understanding of movement and proportion, this wall lamp combines artistic expression with everyday practicality, making it an exceptional lighting feature for bedrooms, living spaces, hallways, or reading corners.
Crafted from steel and aluminium, the lamp showcases the signature slender framework and distinctive shade that have made the Mantis series an enduring icon of modern lighting design. Inspired by the mobile sculptures of Alexandre Calder, the design explores the tension between balance and imbalance, creating a visual impression of lightness and effortless motion. Its graceful form appears almost suspended in space, delivering both illumination and sculptural impact.
The adjustable arm and pivoting shade allow light to be directed exactly where it is needed, providing versatility for focused reading light or softer ambient illumination. Integrated with a convenient switch, the lamp offers easy everyday operation while maintaining its clean and minimalist appearance. The intelligent counterweight system allows smooth movement and repositioning, demonstrating Schottlander’s innovative engineering approach and attention to functional detail.
Finished in black, the Mantis Sconce Wall Lamp delivers a bold graphic presence that pairs effortlessly with contemporary, industrial, and eclectic interiors. Despite its delicate appearance, the durable construction ensures lasting performance while preserving the lamp’s refined aesthetic quality.
More than a functional wall light, the BS5BLSW serves as a timeless design statement. Its harmonious combination of technical ingenuity, sculptural beauty, and adaptable lighting makes it a sophisticated addition to interiors seeking both atmosphere and iconic modern character.

Designer Information
| About The Designer |
Bernard Schottlander described himself as a designer for interiors and a sculptor for exteriors. Movement is intrinsic to all of Schottlander’s work: an artist, an engineer and in no small measure a handyman, he devised a clever system of counterweights combined with a series of strong and flexible metal bars. |
