Something to check out (or continue to covet as we have for years!): a designer in Utah has a handful of these stunning showpieces, authentic Poul Henningsen-designed artichoke lamps in 2 sizes, brand new and still in their original crates, which they are offering at 25% off retail. Unfortunately that's still about $10k each, but just look at the savings! :) And imagine how it would look in the center of your A-frame as people walk into the atrium...…
