The Jetson is one of Mathsson's best known armchairs, which was designed in 1965 and shown for the first time the following year. During the '60s, Mathsson deepened his interest in steel and saw its potential in furniture manufacturing. The almost sculptural design gives the impression of floating, which was timely as the international space race between the United States and the Soviet Union was happening. Mathsson was inspired by the animated American TV series The Jetsons (1962-63) when he created the furniture and named the design after the show. The sitcom took place in 2062 and followed the everyday life of the Jetson family with robots, spaceships and holograms. Mathsson wanted to create a futuristic piece of furniture and the end result was very similar to the chairs seen in the TV series.

Now for something different, an early neon glow lamp, these were made for show window displays and would advertise the shop or products. Attributed to luminon france. this is a very rare survivor, which is a one off, still in its original wooden housing with its original fixtures,fittings and wiring. This would of hung in the window or above a doorway. Rewired and working well, it emits a warm enticing glow. Whist rewiring it has the original date handwritten on the electrode inside the glass tube 12/7/1937. This is not a neon, it predates that, when companies were experimenting with incandescent bulbs. A truly stunning advertising piece which you won't see another, one for a true collector.
