€ 19 738

New

Unique light object, initially meant as a ceiling chandelier, created by Jawa factory workers for House of Culture in Týnec nad Sázavou - Brodce in former Czechoslovakia. Only eight pieces were ever made, designed specially for JAWA club. This light was made around the year 1961, when House of Culture in Týnec - where Jawa club was - was opened. The authenticity of this fixture was confirmed by the Jawa executive director Mr. František Hruška. The magnificent light object is possible to place on the wall vertically, as you can see on the pictures; or horizontally on the ceiling, as it was originally meant to hang. Nanovo has started to produce the Jawa light in first edition of 10 pieces, all by the original design from 1961 with the combination of original blacksmith's technology and new LED technology. Dimensions and technical drawing The JAWA light object can be viewed in our studio at Mladoboleslavská 1096, Prague 19.

Royal System Cado

€ 5 083

A shelving system created by Danish designer Poul Cadovius in the 1960s. In the 1940s Cadovius came up with a new idea for a floating, modular shelving system, for which he won a gold medal at the Finnish Furniture Fair as well as several other awards. Cadovius later bought the furniture company France & Søn and renamed it Cado. At Cado he worked with a number of important Danish designers, including Sigvard Bernadotte, Grete Jalk, and Arne Vodder, who created furniture for him. His Royal System shelving system was a major contribution to Danish modernism, which inspired many future designers with its perfect combination of form and function.The shelving system is made of walnut and consists of many open shelves, several compartments with doors, and a shelf for vinyl records. The entire wall system can be combined and rearranged according to your needs. One of the panels has a hole in it for cable routing. The shelving system has not been refurbished, but it is in very good condition.

The word Nanovo in Czech means something "anew", "afresh" or "again". We stumbled upon the name of our shop as we were chilling at Berlin's university in 2009. Two years later in 2011 our Nanovo shop opened. We are a shop with Czechoslovak and international post-war design, we sell and renovate furniture and we also design interiors. In 2016 we have received the Czech Grand Design Award "Shop of the Year". In 2019, we were awarded the EDIDA Award - Elle magazine award for Jiří Jiroutek's furniture reissue.
